The barcode reader will only return the barcode information not the special characters that are needed to create it. Once all the barcode is sent the barcode reader will send a *Return key*. We can use Gambas to check for the *Return key* so we know the barcode has been completely read. If you want to see how this works open a spreadsheet and read a code into a cell and you will see that if the code is read into cell A1 the cursor ends up in cell B1 because of the *Return key*. There is no need to program the reader to send any extra characters. Here is some code you can use to see how Gambas can handle to reader.
