Reading a barcode through scanner
Posted: Sun Aug 23, 2009 08:28 AM

Hi all,
I modified the Ramona's tscan class in order to read barcodes from the document.
We are succesfully using this feature for our accounting FWH application in order to provide an easy digital catalogue of any document
and to permit the customers that haven't a barcode reader to use the scanner as alternative.

The modified class use the built-in Dosadi OCR Barcode engine that can only detect 3of9 barcode,
if you need to recognize any other barcode type you can make this adding the LeadTools (or Axtel /BlackICE) dll engines that are recognized by Dosadi.

If anyone is looking for something about this we are glad to share the class at http://www.softwarexp.co.uk/fwh/scan.zip

Best Regards,

Dear Mr.Marco,

Thank you very much for the sample.
From where can I get EZTWAIN3.DLL ?
I am unable to run the Sample.exe provided in the zip. It says the above said DLL is missing.
