Can we make a barcode scanning application in asp.net 3.5?(Mr.Vuyiswamb-this is specially for you)

Good Evening Er.deepakdalal

Yes its possible to do this. remember barcode scanning is an input device , like your keyboard.

I need to establish your objective in this regard ( what do you want to do with the scanned input?)

Can you please explain in Detail what you mean in this line

The most important thing you have know is there is around 7 to 10 barcode scanned in 30 sec

Thank you for posting at Dotnetfunda

Good Evening Sir

First of all Thanks for your kind and quick reply. For the scanned input i have to check in the SQL Server db whether it is present or not or according to the value i have to update the db and when the user scan the Barcode page can not be postback otherwise the speed of the scanning is effected or the user have to wait for the result.

And for this line:-

The most important thing you have know is there is around 7 to 10 barcode scanned in 30 sec

I mean, User's are well trained in the scanning and they scanned 7 to 10 barcode in 30 sec. means i have to check 7 to 10 barcode in 30 sec. from one system and there is around 10 system where this application is running simultaneously on the same db so can we do this with the asp.net and on more thing how we get the keypress event on the text box in the asp.net because our barcode scanner press the enter key after entering the barcode value in the text box automatically.

Good Day Er.deepakdalal

Windows Applications are good for those type of behavior. But you can use Ajax to achieve this. Use the Text-changed event, add the Text-box to an Ajax Update Panel. and do the search to the database every time. and you will not have a full post back. try this first and if you have performance problems tell me and we will see what we can do.
