Re: DDS Keyword for auto-enter action

[Russell Conerly <rconerly@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another solution is to look at the documentation for the scanner,
wedge, or handheld.  Most scanners can be configured to transmit a
suffix character at the end of the scan such as a carriage return,
field exit, enter.

You may need this in addition, depending on your application.  For
example CHECK(ER) requires a field exit or the field to be completely
filled in order to work.  This might not work if your application
scans multi-length barcodes.

Just a thought.

Good Luck!
