BAR CODE ?

Dear Reader,
I am designing a library automation system. The problem i am faced with is that i want my application to be able to process the bar codes printed on the book cover. I have absolutely no idea of how to make this work.

Any code or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Try the first thing that comes to my mind.

I remember using a vbx (I think it was !) for VB3 years ago.
