Does anyone out there know anything about how to transfer image information
created by an input device (such as a scanner) to a database?  For example,
when I scan an image with the OPAL ultra scanner using the LinoColor
software, image information is automatically created which includes date
scanned, number of pixels in height and length, and so on.  It is not able
to be copied and pasted, however, and it doesn't seem to transfer to Adobe
Photoshop.  I would like put the data in our image database, without having
to write it down then enter it manually.  Does anyone know how the "image
information" data works??

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
