Thank you! Does that mean the "barcode" is displayed as "clear text" in the table and with the "barcode font" on the form? Or will I need to apply the barcode font in the table as well?

Thanks for your replies, I don't know much about SQL yet. The IMS I am making is my first interaction with SQL / Access altogether. But that "barcode" should be converted to what looks like an image with stripes. Sorry I don't know the right terms :( Is there no problem that the "stripes"...

Hey guys, Quick question; Can I save barcodes as a text-field in my database so it'll be linked to an item? Table1 ID Item Stock Price per unit Barcode 1 1 Cable 10 € 5,00 (any barcode)...

Hello Minty, Thanks for your reply, it gives me a good understanding of what is possible. Now I was wondering, can I make a macro that would detect a barcode scan, saves that input in the background, opens a GUI, selects the correct field and inputs the data? This would make it so people don't...

Hey Minty, Thank you, I thought it might be too much for a single question. To kick off I would like the barcode scanned data to be input not in the selected field, but in a new field, inside a GUI where I can protect the field from having text entered manually, only through a barcode scan. So...

Hey guys, Only recently started to explore MS Access further and I was unable to find a solution to the following: At my company we have a barcode scanner that will input the scanned data as clear text into the selected field. What I am trying to do is as follows: 1) Scan a custom made barcode...
