I use a USB scanner and tried the notepad trick and it writes fine. One related question while we are on this topic... is it possible to scan a barcode with say a 10 digit number that has the same value in a database (that number being the key field) and have another field, the CompanyName, display immediately in a textbox? Thanks!
