You don't need any software, i use this solution in my institute (a
really large bio medical center) with my asp.net applications. What
you need is a good barcode scanner (like the Denso ones) which will
plug itself between the ps2 port and the keyboard. The computer won't
be able to notice if the input comes from a keyboard or from a barcode
scanner. Really powerful and neat to use.
Hope it helps.

Can i have a web application to interact with a bar code scanner attached to
the clients pc ? Would i have to download some form of active-x component to
do so ? or would the scanner just be like a keyboard and would work
seamlessly ? Its basically for the user to scan an item and fill in the code
into a column within a datagrid.. can this be done ?
If its a seamless process it would work on a Thin Client itself ? If i have
to download something onto the client , how does that work on a thin client
? Anyone worked on such solutions before ?
