I think the only way you could manage this is to trap the barcode
delimiter characters. For instance, for a 3 of 9 barcode to be valid
it has to start and end with an asterisk. So, I suppose you could
always check the first (and last?) character of what was entered, and
process based on that.
That's just a guess. The whole point of a barcode scanner is to
*not* have to do anything different, so I don't know if what you want
to do is even possible.

Hello list -
Is there a way to tell which keyboard originated a keystroke?
I'm looking at a project that will interface with a barcode
scanner. I want the user to be able to pick up the scanner - no
matter what they're doing - and have the barcode scanner's output
be processed differently than the normal keyboard.
Thanks for any tips!
