      I'm sure the barcode reader will have a well documented API - you should read that documentation. The vast majority of people here probably don't know anything about barcode reader. The manufacturer of the reader will probably have a forum where you can ask if you are still stuck.

        hi, any barcode reader device will read only 'valid' barcodes. a barcode is valid only if it satisfies a criteria. please look on the internet for differnet barcode standards like EAN8 (8 digits), EAN13 (13 digits), UPC-A (12 ditits),UPC-E (8?) etc. as long as its valid and readable, it will be read by any scanner and scanner will transmit data to your host just like keyboard. please note that scanners normally automatically transmit EnterKey char at end of barcode. regards.

          I think you should respond to the OP rather than me. I think he'd prefer the information.
