Interfacing with SWIPE CARD and Visual Basic Form

Hi natncm70,
Are you writing the drivers and reading software for a company that develops swipe cards? If that's the case, I have absolutely no idea..
If you're writing a program that reads from swipe cards that are developed by some other company, than there shouldn't be any reason to have to read directly from the card. The company should provide some type of mechanism which, at the very least, takes the information from the swipe-cards and writes it to a textfile. All your program should have to do is read from the textfile.
Please let us know if/when you need help with the textfile-reading code. Katie
Hi! I'm currently studying the COM+ programming model. Hopefully YOU'RE having fun, which would make one of us..
