Re: barcode scanner

[Sarah Reichelt]

Hi Paolo,
As Roger pointed out, I have a Barcode Tester stack that will help, as 
well as a stack that creates Code 128 barcodes if that is any use. As 
others have said, the barcode scanner is exactly the same as a 
keyboard, all you have to do is work out what rawKey code your barcode 
scanner sends to indicate the end of a scan.

Mine uses 65293 so here are the scripts I need:
-- Any keyDown on the listed cards is taken as being a barcode 
character.
--
on keyDown theKey
  put "Front,Packing,Storing" into codeCards
  if the short name of this card is in codeCards then
    put theKey after fld "Barcode"
  else
    pass keyDown
  end if
end keyDown

-- When the end character is received, process the characters
-- that have already arrived.
-- Don't forget to clear the "Barcode" field afterwards.
--
on rawKeyDown theKey
  if theKey = 65293 then
    put the short name of this card into cardName
    send mouseUp to btn "Process Barcode" of cd cardName
  else
    pass rawKeyDown
  end if
end rawKeyDown
Cheers,
Sarah

Any of you experienced a software using   a barcode scanner as
data-entry in a revolution stack?
Ciao Paolo Mazza
