Hi there.
I am nearing the end of the primary development of my app. Testing
will begin in about a month or so.
In the future, I would like to add a barcode scan ability to my app.
I will be setting all of this up in a later release, but I would like
to have the table structure ready now, for when I do this later.
I'm gathering I will be using a BLOB field (sub_type binary)
Can anyone give me any relevant pointers on storing barcode data?
Is this field all thats needed, as far as FB is concerned, to store
this kind of data?
Is there anything tricky needed for this blob field? Do I need a
filter of any kind?
Thanks for any info.
Rgds,
