Hi Aravind,
Thanks for your reply. The good news is that Axapta recognizes the barcode scanner. We are also able to program the scanner to create a new line (either CTRL-N or the down arrow). However, in the Registration Pick Form, Axapta wants us to select the Transaction Log ID number from a main table before inserting the scanned barcode n the new line. That's our challenge.

But may be below information can help you, Barcode scanner can be configured using the configuration barcode which is normally given along with scanner manuals. by default all the scanner are configured with enter key means when ever a barcode label is scanned the scanner automatically suffix a enter key . This can be configured... Like for example :- instead of enter key you can suffix it by tab key or any other keyboard key with the help of the configuration bar code. for more clarification u can reach me on [EMAIL PROTECTED] regards Aravind danfine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: We are trying to get AX to create a new line and enter the barcode from the scanner without having to touch the keyboard or mouse to enter another barcode. This is the Pick List Registration Form. The idea is that a warehouse person will pick 20 of the same item for an order and needs to record the unique serial numbers. The problem is that AX wants us to select the LOT ID manually and we can't figure out how to automate that. The form being referenced is Forms\InventPickingListRegistrate. There are two data sources being used for the grids: one for the header, and the other for the line items. What we are trying to do is capture when the new line command is run (I believe the bar code scanner inserts a value and runs a CTRL-N-like command), and override the parent class (super()?) so that we can capture the Lot ID for the just-entered line. For the demo, we would like to also copy in the previous Item Number and Delivery Date values. This way, we can show that items can be scanned without touching a keyboard. Any help from an AX expert would be appreciated. Dan Fine Fine Solutions [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:dan%40fine.com> ________________________________ Meet people who discuss and share your passions.
