Subject: Re: Bar Code reader reading long bar code
What I'd like to do but can't figure out how, is to have a DSPF with one of the input fields being a 1-char field. When the cursor is in that field and the bar code reader scans the long bar code successfully have the full input value populate a 100+ char field in the program. I want a 14-char portion of the long field and do want to display that value in an output-only field on the DSPF

Usually a bar code reader is a keyboard wedge. But, I suppose you
could set it up as an input to a windows program or a browser and send
it to IBM i via a web service. Then RPG could be called via CGI with
the barcode data in a POST, or some other mechanism like a data queue.
