I need to add barcode reading feature to my application. I donot know how to enable my application to read barcodes.I mean a scanner should read the barcode and having matched the article no. in database, info should be displayed on the screen.
View 3 RepliesWe are using USB barcode scanner to scan material barcode labels. These labels are from our vendors. We does not have control over the label generation. We are using USB barcode scanner for scanning purpose. We want to capture USB barcode scanner output. Normally the scanner returns output in the place holder in which the cursor present.But we do not put writable text box for the cursor. Instead of write allowable text box we want to put locked or readonly text box in the screen and want to capture scanner value.How can we do?Assume that our barcode scanner does not support serial ports.

View 6 RepliesI'm building an application that reads barcode scanning data into multiple forms and textboxes. At the moment, to handle that data I have created a large nested if statement that checks to see which object has focus so that the scanned data is placed there and focus moves down to the next object:
Private Sub HandleData(ByVal TheReaderData As Symbol.Barcode.ReaderData)
'Scanning Data into frmGetCount
If frmName.Name = "frmGetCount" Then

View 6 RepliesI am developing a Winforms application which read barcode from barcode scanner. It's an Human wedge scanner. This will work if I placed the cursor in any textbox or notepad. But i don't want like that. Reason is that it's cordless scanner. If some want to scan some thing in store they will move around, so there is possibility of screen saver coming or system gets locked if that happens the barcodes wont capture, but the user who is scanning the barcodes won't know this thing.
So i am reading the data using serial port communication and my scanner sending the data character by character, Not a whole string. so for that I wrote the following code. Thsi code will works if i am writing to any textbox. But it is not working if want to store it in any global string. Only first character is storing in the string. The below code is working perfectly fine. but if want to save the string in Global String variable instaed of textbox the only first character in the string is storing.

I 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
Private Shared Sub Display(ByVal Buffer As String)

I am trying to set a variable to the full barcode to pass to routines, instead of writing to a textbox but am not having any success
I am a student and I am about to make a program that will use a barcode scanner well ofcourse to scan a barcode. 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.
View 1 RepliesI have a USB bar code scanner that is acting as an HID keyboard emulation device. I want a web page that, for testing purposes, pops up a JavaScript alert when a scan is done. I don't want to tie the event to any visible control such as a textbox so thus, I won't have focus on any control to capture the scan input. Can this be done? I'm using VS 2010 with .NET 4.0 and VB.NET with a Symbol USB bar code scanner.
View 1 RepliesI'm sorry if the title is misleading but I have to develop the format for a barcode (either 1D or 2D, doesn't matter). The barcode needs to include a Purchase Order #, Bill of lading #, as well as the Line #, product ID # and quantity of each item that appears on the purchase order.

I need to create a number of barcodes as images on a page from a set of UPCs from a database.Additionally, I also want to be able to produce barcodes which can print as labels to a Dymo LabelMaker.Googling turned up several options, but it seems that for the LabelMaker it'd be wise to produce the barcodes as PDF? So, I started looking into iTextSharp which seems good (and free!)Looking fora simple way to render a Barcode Image to a page, I found this, which looks to do exactly what I want, but I can only get it to work locally. When uploaded to the server it just shows an empty image.I have checked and double checked the web.config file contains everything required and am pretty sure that Adobe Reader is installed on the server (as was suggested by another post in the link). There's a post in the link which says
I just wanted to put a small update for those running IIS7, if everything works fine when running locally in VS debug mode, but you get a red x when accessing it remotly, you may need to add the handler in the section as well as/or the i.e.Which sounds like it's answering the problem but doesn't..url...Part 2 of my question is, am I heading down the right line to print the individual bar codes to a LabelMaker by using iTextSharp?

So I'm trying out a concept tool of mine where I need to be able to read and write data from a database real easy. I've set up the form as I like and spread around different text boxes and dropdownboxes to read the data from the database. And I've got it all to work and all, but there's a small bug I don't fully understand why's there. Some textboxes don't update the text from the database.
But it seems as it only occurs if the data in the database is nothing. So the value from the last row is still hanging in the textbox and thus, clicking "Update" actually updates the value from the field from the last row, into the new row. Messing everything up.

View 1 RepliesI am writing an inventory control application in which a barcode scanner will be hooked up to a laptop computer in our shipping/receiving department. What I'm wondering is, whenever a shipment comes in and the receiving clerk starts scanning the products, what exactly do I need to do in order to setup our database so that the scanner recognizes which vendor/product etc. and puts the data in the correct tables. I've written inventory control apps before but never one that incorporated the use of a barcode scanner.
View 8 RepliesSo i bought a cheap USB barcode scanner to play around with. So far pretty simple to use, on theing thats baffling me though is after the keyUp event and the string parsing, how do i reset the value of the textbox that reads the string to make it wait for a new keyup event. Eventually i'm going to try adding rows to tables and autocompleting cell values based on the parsed string. So what would be the best way to start looking at this?
