For reference, the c:windowstwain_32.dll on my WinXP-SP3 machine is v1.7.1.1.
I’ve got the same version at that location.

Perhaps the select That oddball DS from Microsoft does not export a DS_Entry function as required by the specification.-
You’re saying Microsoft deviated from the specification?? 😉

Please confirm the version of the twain_32.dll that you found in system32. If it is v2.0, do you know how it got in there?
–
The search path and file name theory seems like what happened. But then I check the file version per your instruction and it’s version 1.6.0.3
I really don’t know how that file made it there. Acrobat, Illustrator and Photoshop are the only applications I have installed that I would suspect of doing something like that.

The dialog that lists 2 sources is DSM 1.x [c:windowstwain_32.dll]. The other one is DSM 2.0 [c:windowssystem32twaindsm.dll on 32-bit OS’s]
THANKS for the reply! I eagerly checked the computer here at the office that DOES work and it didn’t have the DSM 2.0 file – naturally this was very encouraging so I then checked my development machine and was bummed that I also don’t have that file.
I ran a search for the DSM 2.0 dll you mention and it’s not found on either system.
On the machine that is not working I do have this file: “C:WINDOWSsystem32TWAIN_32.DLL” and that file is not located on the machine that does work.
So I moved that file into a temp folder and tried OpenOffice and it shows two sources. So it’s reverting to DSM 1.0 – GOOD!
I then tried to actually scan and it works! ( High Five!! )
THANK YOU!
