Re: Using Bar Code Reader

If the barcode reader is connected to a keyboard wedge, it appears to the
computer as typed text. In Access place the cursor on the receiving field
and scan the barcode or type on the keyboard. Depending the how you setup
the reader, it can even pres "Enter".

I have a point of sales application I developed in Access, but the
owner requires a Bar Code Reader.

Is it possible to configure it with Access. I have no idea and this
is causing stress in entering Serial Numbers of products, especially
when they are many and customers cuing up.

Thank you.
