Hi Ken,
I use a form that has a region.
The first field in a row receives the item no. from the barcode
scanner, then in the next field, the description pops up.
Then (in an eep) we look up to see if this part has already been
entered, then if qty > 0, display the qty and ask if you want to add
to this quantity.
This is in case the part happens to be stored in more than one place
or if we forgot and already entered it.
then you can enter the quantity into the 3rd field in the row.

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
