My Manager asked me to develop a form that has a control in which the barcode will be scanned by hand held machine and will automatically comes up in a control. As I have no idea about whioch control shall I use for this and how can the scanned barcode come up in that control.

It deppends on what type of barcode reader device are you using. The most simple version is a barco reader conected with a "Y" cable to the keyboard. This will write whatever has readed to the place where your cursor is in that moment... same as you are typing.

Search internet, there is plenty details about various barcode readers.

To answer your questionyou can use a simple textbox.
