Hi there,

Most barcode readers uses serial port (COM1/COM2), you can make use of the MSComm control that comes bundled with VB6 to read signals from serial ports. Another option will be to use SDK (Software Development Kit) that comes with you barcode reader. SDK is a set of library files distributed by manufacturer to enable communication between hardware & software.

Hope this helps, Good luck & Take care.

Hi there,

Am not sure of the sample code part, you need to check that with your dealer / manufacturer. Normally SDK comes with sample code to show usage. Good luck & Take care
