it depends on the type of bar code.
i don't remember what they are called. like 9 of 39
anyway the barcode itself is only bars of white and black lines there are
no numbers or letters where the barcode is scanned.
sometimes a serial number will also be a barcode which is not a u p c
(universal product code)

Subject: more on barcode scan problem
Well, we've established that the scanner is indeed scanning, but we seem
to be getting a lot of wrong length error messages. Just how many digits
should be in a barcode?
We are getting an 11-character code back from the scan.
Not sure what to try now other than to call tech support as Richard Gurner
has suggested.
Also, is the barcode only made up of number or are there combinations of
numbers and letters. I have a feeling we may actually be finding some
sort of serial number or some such thing.
