C# program that uses a barcode scanner [* Resolved *]

[steve_rm]

Hello

I am writing an program that will use a bar code scanner to scan products. The product code will be looked up in a database and return the details of the product to the windows form.

I have never worked with this barcode hardware before, and before l purchase some a bar code scanner. I need some questions answered.

Does the barcode scanner come with any software?
It is easy to interface a c# windows program with a barcode scanner?
Does the barcode scanner connect through the USB port?
Does anyone know any example programs where this has been done?

Thanks very much in advance,

Steve
