This is no problem with the scanner. It automatically moves to the next field at the end of a scan.
When you scan a bar code with the scanner it is analogeous to typing the number on your keyboard and pressing the enter key....so, you write your program exactly the same as you would if you were using the keyboard for entry. The only difference is you scan rather than type. It's that easy.
>>A keyboard wedge cable with scanner works fine for scanning in barcodes. Whatever field the cursor is in will receive the barcode.

>>>I need to be able to scan barcodes ( from a document ) into a Fox table, has anyone ever done this?
