But if you are using a scanner, why not just scan one of the five items five times? It keeps you from having to put the scanner down, go to the keyboard and press keys.

So I guess VBPOS is a dead project now, huh?

Uh...what happened to the POS you were developing? And what use is this program? Typo in ssc2.JPG on the status bar, "The images displayed on this kiosk is copyrighted" shoudl be "The images displayed on this kiosk are copyrighted". And Addt't features should be Addt'l features. In ssc3.JPG, ROYALTY...

When is that framewrok project going to be released?

I think you should be able to. What you do with a keyboard like this is program each key to send a string of key codes to the computer. For instance, you could program one button for exact chage, and have that key send the command to the end the sale, select cash payment and enter the exact amount a...

John, If you look in the directory where you created the reigster files that there are two seperate POS files. Delete all of the files that have the name of the register you want to delete from that directory. You will be able to operate both of the POS sytems independently, but one will not recogni...

John,

1. You cannot have two registers in one POS file. Each POS file represents one register. Please elaborate.

2. You can have POS in any folder you want, but the executable program files must be in the same directory in order for the program to recognize them.

Looks like a way to scam some cash out of you. Just find another host. It's not worth the problems.

John,

If you have sotrw which has more than 100 of a single item, choose a different numbering scheme.

1000 chocolate
2000 flowers
3000 candy

etc...

It looks as if you have been shut down!

Jon,

Correct me if I am wrong, but the POLE.DAt file is simply a text file which has the text to be written to the display in it?

So, theoretically one could write a very simple Visual Basic, C, Java, etc... program to read the data from the file and then send it to the USB port?

Jon, I'd be interested!

Andrew,

Thanks for the clarification! And I'm using Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.1 on Windows XP.

Why don't you put your focus on one project at a time? You will never finish your work if you are working on 30 different programs at once. Work to get one project working well and use it to build the others-rather than building all of them seperately.

I'm confused by what you mean. Most people are going to answer graphical if they assume like I did--and select so because they use web browsers, etc... In fact, the Internet now is not the same as it was a few years ago. Applications are deplayed over the Internet and check for updates on a regular ...
