Can my VB App differentiate between input from a barcode vs. keybd?

[MiniMe2]

I'm building a Visual Basic application that will use both the keyboard and a barcode scanner for user input. Is there a way that my application can discern which input device was used? I would like for the application to know which input device was used after each entry.


Thanks,

If your barcode scanner uses a wedge to interface with the system, then no, you can't tell the difference, as the info comes over the keyboard port just as if the user had typed it.
