OPEN / CLOSE cash register.

Hi guys. I need help, I dont even know if Im putting this in the right FORUM... but here it goes. Ive been asked to create a Point of Sale application that can control a recipt printer and a cash register. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE TO START. as of now I know that the printer and cash register is connected through LPT1...THATS IT!!.. please help.. Im pretty good at handling web applications and flash...so if there is anyway that I could create componets that I might be able to manage through a web application and SQL/Access database...It´d be great. Thank you very much... X-ZD Designs

The printer and register should have provided you with some sort of interface instructions (e.g., send such-and-such code to open cash drawer). Without that, how are you going to know what commands to send, and how to interpret the commands that you receive?

>> Ive been asked to create a Point of Sale application >> I could create componets that I might be able to manage through a web application So you want to create a "web based" - "point of sale application"? I'm confused :wtf:

well. Im not stuck on the idea that it has to be web based..but I did want to use the visual benifits that FLASH can give me for this application...therefore I need to create other components (.DLLs for example) that I could control (send and recieve data) through my FLASH and save into a database for inventory, statistics and other information.. Im interested in the DLLs that can recieve and send info to the cashier, so that my web interface can know when the register is open or closed...or..so that I can OPEN the cashier through my FLASH movie.. With this I can save a log in my database of when and by who the register was opened..(I would have a previous login) X-ZD Designs
