What software will allow me to scan text from a document directly into a database?

[email protected]: What software will allow me to scan text from a document directly into a database?
I need software that will allow me to define sections of a scanned document (jpg or pdf) to recognize the text on it and apply the text in certain areas of the document directly into an access 2007 database.

If there isn’t software that has options for directly inserting an image’s text to an access database, I also need a tutorial or code to make it work, preferably in SQL or VB.

There’s no program that will do it directly. You can use OCR software to convert a scanned document into text, then use Access to import the text. Or you can write (or have written) software to do both functions in a single program.
