Thanks, will think about this, I still think that something made of cardboard should not cost so much. I never object to paying for things, but, I want value for what I get and I don't have a lot of room to set up one more thing here right now.

Now, it must be said, I am quite handy with these camera apps, but I set up my stand scan pro and used no skill I simply placed the object from the freezer inside the box and use the various apps. Below are the results. By the way, I could have cheated and found something that I knew RedLaser would recognise CamFind would see, but this was honestly the first thing out of the freezer and it did take several attempts before I found an app that would give me enough information. So here you are! Good luck, Sandy TextGrabber didn't do very well because the lettering on this packet is multicoloured and is using stylish graphics RedLaser found the bar code but only saw it as a number and couldn't identify it CamFind just told me Tesco's pasta This is from Prizmo there is a lot of rubbish, which, of course, I could've extracted, but I wanted you to see the actual result.
