Here are some leads:
- do a search on "point sale" with no quotes for a last few years
- same for "bar code" (follow the hyperlink too)
- same for "receipt printer". Depending on the printer you would either define a special paper size or print to it on the old pre-VisualFoxpro pay (no report writer)
- a cash drawer would probably be controlled through a serial port. You can use MSCOMM for this
Others may have more specific ideas.
