capture a picture from using CPP

Question

hi, i need a program to capture pictures from multiple webcams, and save it automatically in vista. i got the basic code from this link. http://www.cs.ru.nl/lab/des/marsrover/communication/pc%5Fimageprocessing%5Fcoordinates/VFWCapture.cpp the code runs in windows XP but when i tried using it on vista and it says failed. different errors pops up every time it is executed. will it help if i use SDK platform? do u have any suggestions?

If the program works with UAC off or when running administrator, make sure the place you choose to save the results are in writable places like the user's my documents folder. Generally speaking root folders and the program files folder is read only for normal users.
