>We have a labor system that we will sometimes use with a barcode reader. Currently the employee keys in their employee number and a messagebox confirmation pops up and confirms that they are who they say they are. have added a "~" character into the barcode of the employee's number on their badge so instead of "1234" it is acually "~1234" and I was thinking that I could change the Keypress or another method on the textbox on the labor entry form so it absorbs the "~" when it sees it and reads the 4 characters after that and displays them in the textbox without the "~" and sets a flag that the user is using a barcode. What is the best way to absorb a key, with which method?
What about changing the input mask to only accept numbers? i.e. 99999
