| Hi, do youn know a barcode scanning software for a Windows ce device?
I have bought a Symbol ppt 2700 with ce 2.11 (upgradable to 3.05) software, but there isn't a scanning software!
Thanks

| Not to ask a stupid question, have you tried a hard reset? Unless somebody has re-flashed the ROM, the software should be resident... after all, it's a major function/feature of the PPT 2700.... |

|
| I have tried, but there is a "ppt2700 demo" software, you can use trigger, but you cannot copy or export data! |
|
|
|
| As far as I know nothing is free, you must either buy a separate software for collecting data or program it yourself, create your own application. Let me know if you found a freeware for it
|

|
| Have you found a solution for this yet???

| I'm trying "tracer_ppc_mips" but is not free! |

| Can you just scan into a text document, or into a cell in a spreadsheet? I have a cuecat bar code scanner, and it works kind of like a keyboard. Just drag it over the bar code, (with text editor or spreadsheet open) and the numbers appear as if you typed them. Not sure if this is true of all bar code scanners or not.

| Ill give tracer a go. im really looking to scan into internet explorer as my database is browser based. this is really annoying why cant they just make these things to work as you would expect. I might just try and make sense of the SDK and write a program to capture the barcode and then insert it where the cursor is at the time. been ages since i tried anything like that though all my recent programming knowlage has been with php and javascript. |

| HI, what's your database name?

| Im running a database driven using mysql and php to web enable it. Its all written in house. I just need to get the Symbol scanner to scan into the internet explorer browser so i can enable staff to work in the warehouse without carting a laptop round. |

| e-mail me @ my user name calum@cal-tec co uk with your telephone number and we can talk further if you like. We both seem to be wanting to reach a common goal so it seems to make sense |

| Wow great! That is a good solution. I have been using this way now but one question. I noticed that using notepad, the scanner becomes slower. I have to wait about 2 seconds in between reads. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way to change the setting or something? |
