    I'm developing a POS system that I'm integrating with a credit card verification software. Has anybody integrated a keyboard magnetic card reader with VB? The trick here is to always set focus on a text box. This text box will capture any data scanned in. I thought about using a timer to set focus into a text box. Is there a better way?

    Thanks

    Wink I´m going to use this...

    I´m going to start a project that will make use of a code bar scanner and
    i´m planning to set the foucus to the text box whenever any other control has
    the focus. What i mean is that i have to monitor the event GotFocus of the
    other controls and then pass it to the text box.

    Hope this approach will help you.

    Saludos...
