We use a variety of scanners on a daily basis for both inventory and receipts. The type of scanner you want to use really depends on the application. For instance, we use Symbol wireless scanners for our inventory app. The scanner actually runs a small terminal program, and the only difference between writing a program for it versus one for a wintegrate session is the size of the screen.
I'd offer more advice, but I'd really need to know what type of scanning you have planned to be more helpful. -- Dave Walker Programmer/Analyst Ivy Hill - Louisville (502) 473-2811 *IBM Certified Solutions Expert *U2 Family Application Development > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > HENDERSON MIKE, > MR > Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 5:15 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [U2] Large-scale scanner / OCR devices and interfaces to > UniVerse {Unclassified} > > > Folks, > > We have some process improvement people who are keen to reduce manual > key-boarding effort by setting up some large-scale scanner / > OCR devices > and interfacing them to our UniVerse systems. > [I'd rather avoid the paper forms altogether and get XML streams from > the document originators, but ...] > > Anyone got any experience on this kind of gear? > I'm clueless about this (Google next, I guess), so ideas on > brand names > etc would be helpful. > > Thanks > > > Mike > The information contained in this Internet Email message is intended > for the addressee only and may contain privileged information, but not > necessarily the official views or opinions of the New Zealand > Defence Force. > If you are not the intended recipient you must not use, > disclose, copy or > distribute this message or the information in it. > > If you have received this message in error, please Email or telephone > the sender immediately. > ------- > u2-users mailing list > [email protected] > To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
