L_INT nRet = m_MyTwain.GetCapability(&twBrightnessCap, LTWAIN_CAPABILITY_GETCURRENT); 
if (nRet == SUCCESS) 
{ 
   ptwOneVal = (pTW_ONEVALUE)GlobalLock(m_twCap.hContainer); 
   memcpy(&twFix32, (void *)&ptwOneVal->Item, sizeof(TW_FIX32)); 
   GlobalUnlock(twBrightnessCap.hContainer); 
   GlobalFree(twBrightnessCap.hContainer); 
   twBrightnessCap.hContainer = NULL; 
   if (twFix32.Whole != 128) 
   { 
      twFix32.Whole = 128; 
      twFix32.Frac = 0; 
   } 
   twBrightnessCap.Cap = ICAP_BRIGHTNESS; 
   twBrightnessCap.ConType = TWON_ONEVALUE;
