Actually, this works very nicely under Vplus and Transact. Several years ago I wrote a rather large Transact application for a poultry porcessor. This utilized Vplus forms, a scanner wedge, and where needed dual-port terminals to which barcode printers were direct-attached. I could scan and/or print the needed multi-format barcode labels with no difficulty. The barcode printer driver I actually wrote as a Cobol subroutine, simply because the needed escape sequences both coming and going were more readily handled by Cobol. I'll admit that my Transact is rusty (very!), but I'll be happy to help in any way I can! Oh, and yes, it hit Image databases as well.... * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
