OCR Images Using Microsoft Office'2003 SDK

// Microsoft Office Document Imaging Library (MODI) which is
// pupplied with the Office 2003 package, allows you easily integrate
// OCR functionality into your own applications. For example, you can
// use recognized text for indexing documents in your database.
// Important notice: MS Office 2000 or XP does not contain MODI!
//
// 1) Open your project in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
//
// 2) Press "Ctrl+W" in Visual C++ to open ClassWizard
//
// 3) In ClassWizard window press "Add Class->From a type library"
//    button and select "MDIVWCTL.DLL" file. By default this file
//    should be in folder:
//    "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MODI\11.0"
//
// 4) Save files "mdivwctl.h" and "mdivwctl.cpp" and add into
//    your "stdafx.h" file this include: #include "mdivwctl.h"
//
// 5) You must initialize the COM before you call any COM method.
//    Please call "::CoInitialize(0);" before using COM and
//    ::CoUninitialize(); after using COM.
#include "mdivwctl.h"
