Well Frank, lets run through the basics on this:
1. Are you working on XP clients? Because all I have stated applies ONLY to XP or XPe

I don’t think this needs a coding solution, though I am willing to implement one. I believe this problem needs the knowledge of an “OPOS device” person and or a Citrix / Terminal Services guru. Maybe someone who’s experienced the problem of an usb scanner device not being ‘seen’ by the citrix...
