Call for Scan Input

[Joe Chasan]

Have Unix server w/facetwin so can call windows programs pretty easily 
from within fp - i want to force there to be a specifically named file 
(with name based on certain fp fields, some hardwiring, and .pdf extension)
on a network drive that is populated via scanner - i can test for existance 
of file pretty easily - any suggestions on how would i force windows to open 
up whatever scanner program is setup on PC for input should file either be 
missing or need update?  (and possibly name it as i require)?  If i leave it 
up to users, they'll never get the directory/naming conventions I need to 
force integrity, and I'm not comfortable throwing it in a blob file just 
yet.

I'd hate to have to replace all existing facetwin licenses with anzio,
but so far that's what i've come up as a possibility.

Suggestions?
