This method captures the user’s fingerprint file, returning the fingerprint file converted to a long ASCII hex string. This string can be stored as necessary (for example in a database) and returned later for comparison. The user is guided by automatic dialogs.
RETURN: String: ASCII hex representation of the fingerprint template file; otherwise a return of “1” indicates the timeout has occurred, and an empty string (“”) indicates the user has canceled the dialog.
Example:
Dim strFingerprint As String
strFingerprint = SigID1.GetFingerprintString
If strFingerprint = "1" Then
‘timout occurred
ElseIf strFingerprint = "" Then
‘user canceled dialog
Else
‘fingerprint string captured ok
End If
