Any help will be apreciated. > If library databases don't involve anything complicated which I am unaware of, you might try throwing together a quick Lotus Notes database. Although come to think of it if you need bar code scanning I don't know if you could do it in notes. If you have any Client/Server programmers up for a quick project they could throw something together with VB or Delphi, and the database of your choice (oracle, MS SQLserver, etc). Would be quite simple to write, and then they could just use whatever bar code reader libraries come with the bar code reader. George Pang
