View 12 RepliesI am planning to buy a USB barcode reader. I don't want to use it as a keyboard wedge scanner.But before I do I wonder if it's possible to see whether the input comes from a barcode reader.I need a Windows Service that detects whether a barcode is scanned and depending on the text on the barcode starts another program.Is this possible and has anyone experience with this?

My problem is i don't know what library to use and what certain things i need to do so that when i am going to scan a barcode it'll be something like show it on a textbox and pull something from the database. i've actually research some. i've seen mscomm1 (not so sure about that) and POS for .net (haven't fully understood its use) were those will help me develop my program?
i have a metrologic ms9520 Voyager barcode scanner. and i am going to create a program for it in vb2005.
I'm looking at creating an asset management system for all our electrical equipment, the equipment already have security labels with barcodes on them. What I am wanting is to be able to do is create a form where i can state some general information about the piece of equipment and then scan a barcode to register the equipments security number. so that if an employee needs to use that piece of equipment off site then I can just scan the barcode and register that the employee has taken the equipment.
My understanding is that the barcode reader is generally plug and play and acts as an input device? So what I would need to do is find a way to identify which input device is used, and if it is the reader find a way to assign a labels text to the value that has been read, rather that insert it into a textbox? I also want to display the actual barcode itself above the label, so I assume I would need to re-generate the barcode as an image and then display the image?
Im creating an EPOS system and nearing the end of the application.I need to connect my newly acquired barcode reader to the form in vb.net so that whenever I scan an item in the items ID number appears in the necessary textbox.After some research I have bought the relevant barcode reader making sure it supports the relevant barcodes including retail.I have plugged it into the computer through the usb port, it has installed automatically all of the relevant drivers, and below is the code Im using in vb.The below code is include for where the form loads up:Me.KeyPreview = True

View 1 RepliesI am using Richard L. Grier's Enhanced Serial Port dll to read input from a serial port barcode scanner I notice that the datareceived event fires only once per barcode scan, but the delegate sub fires twice per barcode scan. Once for 1st half of Barcode , 2nd for 2nd part of barcode This makes it hard to capture the full barcode so it can be passed to routines in my vb.net 2008 windows application In Richard's example 'Test Enhanced Port' program he sends it to a textbox using .selectedtext and it works fine Richards Delegate code ......................
Public Delegate Sub DisplayData(ByVal Buffer As String)
'This delegate routine marshals receive data from the receive thread context DataReceived to the Windows Form STAThread context

View 1 RepliesI need to setup an application to scan a barcode from a packing slip and the associated fulfillment items on a windows CE 5.0 device and update the inventory on the server. I'm using VB.NET. However, what is the best way to interact with the database? Integration Services, ADO.NET, RDA... etc... it's a bit overwhelming trying to figure out what I should use to interact with the database. It's currently an Access database, but I imagine I'm probably going to need to migrate it to SQL Server or SQL Server Express.
I'd also need to print the packing slip to a network printer from the device. Is there any way to do this?

Let's say 10 desktop shortcuts, all with different names/icons, point to and can start the same exe application from the same directory. Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?

View 1 RepliesQuestion: I created an ASP.NET web application. Now it originally was meant for deployment on a webserver.That is working, so, so far so good.My question now is: Is it possible to deploy it as a desktop-application, too? That is to say the installer installs some kind of server, plus the web application, configures the server to run this application on a localhost URL, and then creates a link in the start menu/desktop, where it opens that url (website, the application) on localhost in a web browser?
I think it should be possible, though the server wouldn't be IIS, because this is a windows component which can't be separately installed. Is there anything like this already out there The nonplusultra would be that it only starts the server when you click on the shortcut.
I have an application that is written in VB.NET, using the System.Windows.Forms.Form as the front-end GUI. It runs perfectly on my Windows machine however recently there is a business requirement to convert this application to run as a web application so that people could view them in their blackberries when they go to the URL. Is there any quick way to perform such a conversion or I will have to translate the code line-by-line for such cases?
