[Delphi] imagekitcontrolname.Scan.DataSourceName [ = String ]

Property Value

The name of the scan device

Explanation

The DataSourceName property sets the name of the scan device. This property is only enabled when using a custom-built user interface. The DataSourceName property must be set prior to executing the OpenDataSource or the Execute methods. However, if the Execute method is executed after the OpenDataSource method then the DataSourceName property value will be disregarded. If the DataSourceName property is not set, the scan device selected by the Select method will be used.

The DataSourceName property corresponds to the Scan Control's ScanDsName property in earlier versions of the ImageKit.
