GOAL:
How to use a barcode scanner with Progress 4GL?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress/OpenEdge Product Family
OpenEdge Category: Language (4GL/ABL)
FIX:
Barcode scanners are much like a keyboard accessory. They plug into the keyboard socket and send keystrokes to the client.
Barcode scanners can often have different configurations, however you will need to configure the barcode scanner to send a termination character so that the receiving device (Progress 4GL client) can determine when the barcode has been fully received.
