Read Content from .txt file and output in another windows

[bslee86]

Hi All,

I need to improve some procedure in my existing program which source code is missing already.

I need create another support software in order to decrypt the barcode and insert into the pop-up window.

Please refer below image for better understand. Any reference can I refer by using labview?

Hi bslee,

Please refer below image for better understand.

Sorry, but I have problems to understand your image…

What is "Windows come out"?

What is "window column"?

Why don't you insert the Barcode string directly into the string control?

Atleast that's the common way to handle barcode readers as has been discussed several times in this forum…

Hi Gerdw,

Sorry for my typo. What i  mean is wait for the pop-up window (which promt user to scan the barcode) and output the content from .ini file into the column.

I wish to do that also (direct process the barcode in the column), but unluckily, the code not is able to compile, and i treat it as missing already. (the software is done around yr 2000 and the source code was unable to compile. It also not done with labview). Currently, I try java and autohotkey in order to realize it, still in progress. But i would like to realize it by using labview. Hopefully can get a guide from those test or done before this kind of stuff. I believe labview is able to done this kind of pure software programming since it able to communicate with a lot of window lib right now.

Thanks,

BS

What type of barcode scanner are you using? There are two common flavors. The first emulates a keyboard and so requires no software to make it work. The second uses a serial interface and simply spits out the codes when the scan is successful. It requires a little code -- but not much.

Neither should require call to outside libraries.
