Ken,

In our environment we have the option on the scanners to add a carriage
return to the end of the scan data.  That does the trick.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Receiving barcode input..

Using a barcode reader as input.  Currently using the Dialog command in 
an EEP to receive the barcode read data.  But, find that one has to 
select whether to accept or cancel this input via a keyboard entry.  The 
cancel is not needed.   Is it possible to continue once the barcode is 
read and accepted by the Dialog command (without having to provide a  
keyboard entry to fulfill the Dialog Option Button Ok)?   Or perhaps 
there is another command that could be used rather then Dialog to 
receive the barcode data..

   DIALOG 'Scan for Barcode: (Blank For Accession Number)' +
   vresp vendk 1 +
   CAPTION 'Signout or Return Book Using Barcode (ESC to Exit)' +
   ICON QUESTION OPTION |BUTTON OK

Thanks,  Ken
