[vb.net 3.5]Console application for Falcon Barcode Scanner

AI Thread Summary
BarCode scanners typically function as keyboard input devices, allowing scanned data to be entered directly into applications. A custom console application can indeed be used to load and save this scanned data. The user is interested in developing an application using Visual Studio 2008 to manage the scanned information.

Understanding how to capture and handle keyboard input in the console application will be crucial for effectively managing the scanned data.

One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
