    It should be included in optical reader. It will work as an input device like your keyboard.

    Special thanks to Lothar "the Great" Haensler, Tom Archer, Chris Eastwood, Bruno Paris and all the other wonderful people who made and make Codeguru a great place. Come back soon, you Gurus.
    ...at present time, using mainly Net 4.0, Vs 2010

    Go to Http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb and search on "CUECAT" (Without the quotes of course) and you will get two hits. CUECAT is a barcode reader recently distributed free by Forbes magazine and Radio Shack as a Advertising gimmic. The PSC.com site has two examples that can read and interpret its output. It may or may not suit your requirements, but the code is real simple and can be analyzed in a matter of minutes as to suitability.
