Barcode

Hello

I am looking for a program that can count the bar code by handheld systems.
I want to give discount for our costumer by paying ex. 100$ I give them card
with barcode and that will be used for 10 times.
So every time they will visit our restaurant and have a meal, then they have
to show the barcode card to be read on computer to register the time and make
-1 count from the total times he / she had paid.

Any hekp please?

search on this site, particularly in forms and form code on the key word
barcode and you will see alot of good advice.

the scanner essentially plays the role of keyboard input

generating barcodes can be done direct w/Access if you have the correct
add-in, and depending on your version - or you can do that separately with a
product such as Bartender....

Is there any sample that I can get and see ?

I just would know how many tables, queries need first ?

I need to write information of a custom and add on his count 10 times.
So every time he visit our restaurant, he will show his barcode that should
be the mobile number.
And when the computer read the barcode then insert on his count -1 and even
the date and time clock to see the history.

When the 10 times be finish,, so the program will give BEEP signal because
it will not execpt count be with -1. Then custom must pay again to write on
the count 10 times again.

If the custom forget the bar code card so we can seek his mobile number to
add -1 count.

well....these issues are not barcode issues...they are legitimate database
programming issues however..... to separate the two areas just consider the
barcode scan to be autotyping into a field in your form....that is really
what it is. After that - everything else is database programming that would
be the same whether the data was scanned in or typed in.

yes ; when the code goes in - then you will need to query on it; count the
number of entries; program a beep or message if = 10, etc etc... all very
do-able. If you are not comfortable in database design though is difficult
to type each element in this type forum.... I thought you were seeking
direction on barcode stuff.....

Note that a bar code can be easily duplicated by using a photo copier.
So a malicious person could make a copy of the persons barcode and eat
for free.

Hello

That's right but the difference is that each card contained at bar code has
a restaurant stamp, so I think it cannot be duplicated by using a photo
copier.
As well as, the bar code will be checked every time by my computer, for each
meal will count (-1).
If a malicious person has made a faked stamp and succeeded to penetrate our
system so already the computer will count (-1) that related to his/her mobile
phone, or a private password that is unique for each person.
Hence the disadvantages will be minimum.
Look at this example on the following link, please.

Best wishes and good luck.
I am looking forward to hear from you about it.

What kind of restaurant stamp? Unless it's a hologram or unique paper
or plastic then it can be duplicated.
As well as, the bar code will be checked every time by my computer, for each
meal will count (-1).

So what?
If a malicious person has made a faked stamp and succeeded to penetrate our
system so already the computer will count (-1) that related to his/her mobile
phone, or a private password that is unique for each person.

So there is another PIN of some sort? That's fine. You hadn't
explained that before.
Look at this example on the following link, please.

No, I don't download databases unless for paying clients.
