Use the methods in zkemkeeper.dll ?
Can you link to the documents that describe the functions of zkemkeeper.dll ?

From what I can gather by a quick Google search, zkemkeeper is an ActiveX control. All you need to do is add a reference to the control, and it will generate interop code that you can call. Beyond that, you are going to have to refer to the documentation for the API.

This is liek the 4th or 5th time he's reposted this question. If he's using the "Lite" version of the control, it doesn't support TCP/IP communication and only 2 fingerprint sensors. I doubt he's bought the $1000 version that supports a much wider range of hardware.

He's been told to get the SDK from the manufacturer of the device he has and been told to contact ZKSoftware(??) but just won't listen, probably because he hasn't paid for the copy of ZKemkeeper he has.
