      Sure, it's possible. You just need the SDK for the fingerprint scanner, oh, and a database to hold all the fingerprint data. You'll need to contect the manufacturer of the scanner to get the SDK and that is more than likely going to cost a few thousand dollars.

          Never used it, but you have to buy a minimum of 5 licenses at $35 and change a piece for a total of $176. You also have to buy enough license to cover the number of machines you application is going to run on AND be developed on. So, if you're going to run this on 200 machines, you'll need the 150 pack ($3,920) + 50 singles ($1,765) + whatever dev machines you'll be using. $,$$$...

              Any company that states "Please log in to see prices" I wonn't buy from. Why not just show them up front? If there are discounts to be had for existing customers and therefore they want you to log in so they can give accurate prices the should say clearly that the visible prices may not apply to xxx, not hide the price from everyone.

                  Yeah, well, you still have to buy a minimum of 5 licenses. Even though you'll only be using 1. And ASP.NET has nothing to do with database access. Were you thinking about ADO.NET?? ASP.NET just puts up web pages.
