Hi Everyone, Is there anyone have an idea on how to capture data coming from USB barcode scanner? Currently, I'm having a problem to prompt message box after scanning barcode fonts. I need to throw whatever data reads from USB barcode to my disabled Single Line Edit (SLE) Field. 

By the way, I'm using Sybase Powerbuilder 12. Thank you in advance for sharing your ideas.

Barcode scanners work as a 'proxy' for keyboard input.  Most you can set up to either append a CR/LF at the end of the string or not.
