Recomendations for scanning and barcode reading?

[Bruce D]

I'm researching a VB .NET project that will have two functions:
1 - scan images using TWAIN drivers of scanner
2 - read barcode of that scanned image

I've been researching many companies and was wondering if anyone had any
recommendations of any options about the companies I've listed here. Your
input is appreciated!

The thing here is that I like Dosadi:EZTwain...but they don't offer barcode
recognition. It seems these are the only ones that offer SDKs that can do
both...scan using TWAIN drivers and barcode recognition.
* Pegasus Imaging: TWAIN PRO, Smart Express Barcode v3
* AccuSoft: ImageGear v14
* ClearImage (though I'm not sure about the ability to scan using TWAIN
drivers)

TIA

Hi,

Maybe you can use the decode function of the barcode link with the
scanning.
