Programs are moving along nicely. I have 459 books in the database so far. I can search by Title, Author and Genre and display the info. Still need to make a way to indicate that a book was read and by whom. Will want to the ability to modify the data too because sometimes I pulled double descriptions and its annoying to modify the database directly.
The Barcode scanner is annoying because I had to increase the timeout more to get all the codes. Will have to revisit the technical specifications to see if I can tell what is going on (betting that the code I have is a little lacking...)
Was able to reset both scanners to defaults and now they both beep when a code is scanned, just so I can confirm it :).
Have a lot of books that don't have barcodes so I'm manually typing in the ISBN. Have some books from the 50s that don't have the ISBN so I'll have to figure out how to manually get them into the database :).
All in all, I'm pretty happy with the way it is turning out.
