Hi guys

I need some help with something that should be really simple, yet I can't seem to figure it out...

I've got an app running on a handheld barcode scanner runing WinCE and .NET CF 3.5. When I scan a barcode, all I want to do is capture the input and display the string in a textbox.

Please help?
 
bar code scanners are just input devices, like mice and keyboards. the device should have drivers/api which allow you to capture the input. I would start with the manufacturer and see if there forums/helpdesk can assist you. They will know their product better than anyone else.
