texte = Thanks, John. I did find your reference (from 2000) in the talklist archive giving a URL that offers free barcodes (http://www.unibar.com/eBARZ_WEBDEMO.htm). I'm just looking into that now. So my concern now is a) generating barcodes for roughly 10,000 SKUs and b) talking to the barcode software to get the SKU into the shopping cart.

FWIW, most barcode readers simply shim into the keyboard and just appear (to your application) to be someone typing very fast (and accurately). As far as generating barcodes, there are a number of barcode fonts available (depends mostly on your printer). Tell us more what you want to accomplish and you may get some better responses...
