I'm currently trying to figure out how to make an application to scan barcodes.
I have a USB barcode scanner to scan the barcodes.
I have been searching this forum and other places (like wiki) to figure out how to get this done but nothing was really helpful.
I presume I need to use SerialPort to get this done but I get stuck at something simple as:
DIM BarCodeScanner AS NEW SerialPort
BarCodeScanner.PortName = ????
How do I know the portname, I have no idea.It would also be nice to have some sample code that I can study to get a grasp on how this works.
It is probably something simple I am completely overlooking...
