Dear All,

Am a c#.net coder (so what?), I have a project am working on now, that require reading and generating barcodes, really i dont have problem with generation of barcodes, think am able to get codes to that . My wahala is reading barcodes,

Please I need help from my folks the on codes to do that (reading barcode) , or both(generating and reading) , either dll or complete source.

Note:
- The project is a job, i will recieve something for, so we can talk about yours too (cos awoof dey tear pocket)
- Can come in either in VB.net or c#.net


Longing for positive response from you folks.
Thanks

Regards

seun pls stop this, it's a double post

Hummm , You can get some .net Classes that do that .Search the net for them . Thou you would have to buy them or if you are looking for a free solution then maybe SourceForge has something interesting in store for you .

barcodes can be misterious sometimes, but a carefull look at the barcode system sort of demistifies the whole lot. creating and reading barcode is quite easy for a programmer regardless ur language.

let me focus on reading barcodes, to read a bar like you know you need a barcode reader, now the problem wit barcode reader is that programmers often wonder if the read text would be displayed on the control with the focus automatically with no code interfacing. Well the answer is yes, earlier barcode devices or scanners were dificult to incomperate into software because of lenghty code, the thing is these devices lacked something.

What did they lack? There is a device known as a wedge, it is rendered as either a hardware or a software, the wedge device acts as an interface between the barcode and the system converting hits from the barcode as if it were inputs frm the keyboard and tricks the computer to accept input from the barcode as if someone was typing the text on the key board, also at the end of the text read the wedge passes the enter key to the system allowing for automatic processing of the read barcode text. The good news is that you could purchase a barcode that comes integrated with a wedge device all in one, just check or ask the purchaser for that kind of barcode reader, or if your are supplied with a barcode already without a wedge device you could download the software (google it) and install on your client system better yet you can bootsrap the wedge sofware with your application .exe file for easy deploy, in my own opinion you dont need lenghty code or abstract classes just to read input from a barcode, hope ill get my cut if this works.lol

u can use this libray to generate ur barcode ,there are also 3 party libraries u can use to interprete a barcode from an image file

You need a hardware (barcode reader) to be able to decipher barcodes. All you have to do is use the API provided by the manufacturer (motorolla, zebra, honey well etc) to program in C#

looks like an thread posted long time ago. i would like to share the C# barcode generator and reader I used a few days ago. it's easy to add the barcode component into the .NET project. And the barcode component generates and decodes barcode quickly. it works great!

To generate barcode in C# or VB.NET, here two passages may be helpful:
C# barcode generator SDK
VB.NET barcode generator SDK

why not searching on the internet, which will show you many related resources like barcode for vb.net library SDK as well as barcode for C# control.

What about in ASP.NET? I googled some manual of it but couldn't understand it well. Would you please specify the operating steps too ?
