I'm developing on Visual basic.net for a mobil device (Smart device) and I
cant insert the objet BarcodeReader.

1. What is BarcodeReader?
2. What do you mean by "insert"?
3. Show us the code that's failing.

Since MS do not provide support for barcode readers in Compact Framework,
this is presumably a device-specific API. Which device are you using?

Hello!

To use barcode to compact framework , it's very easy.
For example:You have a textbox with focus, and the barcode is read
directly in the textbox. It's the samething that a keyboard input.
You can find barcode device to socket.com or for example i have a
fujitsu loox 720 with usb port, and i use a classical barcode, and it's
run very well!

hope that you help, and understant me ;-)

Well I'm developing on Pocket with windows CE.NET

What hardware?  The manufacture should provide you an API, unless the
scanner is designed to simply send scanned data to whatever window has
focus, simulating a keyboard or SIP.

Kent,

The BarcodeReader is a component for Symbol devices. After installation of
the Symbol SDK for .Net (from Symbol Developer Zone), add this control to
your VS Toolbox from the file c:\program files\microsoft visual studio .net
2003\compactframeworksdk\v1.0.5000\windows
ce\designer\symbol.barcode.design.dll. Then you can Drag&Drop the control on
your form.
