'Declaration
 
Public Shared Sub SetVersion( _
   ByVal twainVersion As TwainVersion _
)

'Usage
 
Dim twainVersion As TwainVersion
 
TwainSession.SetVersion(twainVersion)

public static void SetVersion( 
   TwainVersion twainVersion
)

 function Leadtools.Twain.TwainSession.SetVersion( 
   twainVersion 
)

public:
static void SetVersion( 
   TwainVersion twainVersion
)

Parameters

twainVersion: The twain version to set, see TwainVersion for list of available versions.

This method overrides the default Twain (version 2) used for scanning. This allows the Twain version to be changed without the need to rename of delete any of the Twain version DLLs from the system directory. The Twain version 1 DLL name is Twain_32.dll and version 2 DLL name is TWAINDSM.DLL, if this method is not called the engine will keep the default behavior and look for Twain version 2 first. If version 2 does not exist it will then look for Twain version1.
If this method is called and returns SUCCESS there is no need to call Leadtools.Twain.TwainSession.IsAvailable since this internally calls it.
