Connecting Bar code scanner to VB 6.0 - Visual Basic 4 / 5 / 6 ...

No need to connect the Bar code scanner with Visual Basic. What you need to do is use the device to the system and use it. Bar code scanner work like a simple input device (like keyboard) attached to the system. It simply scans the code and puts the code into any control having focus. No need of any special coding for that. You may need to use some library (usually provided by the vendor of the device) to process the code captured from the device.
