barcode reader should have some sort of driver that needs to be installed and you normally don't have to do anything special to read it. It's like having someone type in all the numbers for you.

In this case I think you just need to set focus to the textbox so it can receive input data.

Thanks man.. I got this.. It was pretty simple..
Just added a text box on a form and scaned barcode, that's all..
Great..

I think RS232 barcode readers are bit complex to read...

Thanks for your help...
