Detect Usb Card Reader Device And When Swipe The Card
Nov 23, 2009
I want to create an application that can detect usb card reader device and when i swipe the card it should read.The below code WORKS PERFECTLY IN VB.But when i converted it to vb.net it is showing some problem.Below is the code for that.
I am working on writing a program that once a magnetic strip card is swiped, the number on the card is validated against a database storing information on the user. What is the best was to get the stream from the USB swipe card reader, build by Magtek, and then just pull the 9 digits I need? I have currently been using an Excel macro that searches the Excel document, but I want to get away from this system and make it more user friendly.
We have the customers credit card number on file which we use simply to identify them when they swipe at our computer. The problem i'm running into is that when they swipe their card in the card reader (Magtek mini usb) it outputs the data as ASCII which looks something like %B followed by the credit card number in whatever textbox i have the program focused on. I'm sure i could just search the textbox for any 16 character number string and assume that is their card number, but i was just curious if there is some best practice to decript the ASCII output from the magnetic card reader.
i want to read data from smart card using card reader.i need vb.net code help as well as total process that mean what dll/exe will be needed and how can i determine that the card is inserted or ejected from card reader?
I am developing a payroll system which will obtain the attendance of all the employees in the company through a swipe card machine. how to interrogate the swipe card machine with the pc.
I am developing application which will read credit card no without generating keystrokes for same in POS for .net. I can enable device but when I swipe a card MSR_Dataevent is not firing. EDIT: I have done below code:

I want to detect when the smart card reader is connected to the computer. I used a loop structure/timer component but these solutions takes a lot from the processor capacity. There are other solutions?
P.S: when I connect normally the smart card reader to the computer, I don't have a letter where I can access the card reader.

P.S 3: my code is:
Do While rgReaderState(0).lAtrLen > 0 If BackgroundWorker2.CancellationPending Then
i am working on a project that uses an magnatec card reader mse-750 iam facing a problem in making the machine on read mode so i can read from it iam using vb.net?
Is it possible to capture the raw signal from a WiFi card in the same way you can capture the signal from a sound card? (I already found code for working with a sound card and for drawing spectrograms) I'm wondering because it would make a cool radio-type project. I'd prefer a solution that integerates well with .net (VB or C#).My basic goal is to capture the ambient radio waves and build a primative "telescope" of sorts. Using the built in computer hardware is just the easiest way to accomplish this. If you have any other suggestions about how to accomplish this goal in a different way please post it as an answer also.

I am trying to use the eID SDK (for using the belgian ID-card) in VB. It's supported but I can't get it to work. I have never worked with sdk's before. I did manage to get it to work in c++ in console but I really need it in visual basic. Also the VB examples that come with the sdk are made in an older version of visual studio and when my version tries to convert them they don't work. I want to use the sdk to see when a card is inserted into the reader and to read out the data. (both i got to work in c++ console).
I have been looking all over the net trying to find a program that can read data from a USB CCID card reader. after several hours and several pages of useless info i thought maybe there is a way i could create a simple progeam in VB to read the data, so i started another long search for info also to no avail.
Does anyone know of anything like this or if its even posable?
I have a smart card reader/writer hooked up to my serial port. i've already coded the program to give access to the serial port. How would I go about getting my Card Reader/writer recognized in my program. I basically want to click the "read button" and whatever is on the current smart card im trying to read, pop up on the screen.
How do i actually detect a card is being read by a card reader by using events handler?Like the card reader is connected to the PC using USB, and when a card is flash on the card reader, it will be detected.

I have been looking for like 3 hours trying to find a dll or anything to make a simple cards game, but everything I find is oriented to C.
In this page A FreeCell game using Cards.dll - CodeProject� they talk about just what I want, but I cannot make it work in Visual Studio 2008 using Visual Basic.net, I don�t know if that has anything to do with the Vista OS I am using.
In the page I mention the author says "There are many good articles on the net on how to use the Cards dynamic link library" and I am sure the good articles are there, but my good luck has make me looping around the same nonsense results so I end up with nothing after 3 hours search.
The game I want to make is just something for a project we must do in class, how to start making a cards game fast and simple. If someone knows about a cards dll that works fine with vbnet, that someone would be my new hero.
I have a multi input capture card (Composit, s-video, ...) and I developed a program with avicap32.dll in vb.net to connect to a webcam. But I can not use this program to connect to composite input of my capture card.It seems the capture card has a default input.
Firstly, How can I change the default input? because I want to connect to compsite input.
Secondly, is there another way to connect to my capture card?
I've been googling but I could not find any code for vb.net or C#.net. They are all in C++ and I could not traslate them to vb.net
I am trying to make a card game which can be played over the internet between users. I have already downloaded the cardGame Starter kit for Visual Basic. I plan to modify it to the game I want.I had worked with Sockets (Client-Server App) a long time ago for a small chat program for computers connected in LAN.I had the following questions:How should I start off with this Application, should I first just concentrate on making the game and then progress to trying to figure out how to make it playable over the internet?
Or should I do it the other way round?Can I attain my objective using Sockets? or do I have to use something else?Is there a tutorial available to start me off? (I Googled and "Bing"ed it but to no avail)
I am looking for a solution to implement Credit Card processing to a POS system I have written. I have been coding VB for about 7 years but never had a need to process credit cards.
