Bar Code Reading
-
I need to create a program that reads in bar codes. Would you be able to suggest how I might go about that task? Thanks

Most bar code readers stand in between the end-user and the keyboard. So that when you scan a barcode it's as if they typed in the numbers on a keyboard. So just place your cursor where it needs to go and scan a bar code. It should fill. I've tried this with the USB as well as the PS2 barcode readers. The PS2 connects to the keyboard PS2 port on the PC and then with a "Y" cable that the keyboard plugs into. Good luck Tom Wright tawright915@yahoo.com

Thank you. That will make life relatively easy for me.
