Removing leading zeros from barcode???

I'm using Datawedge 2.02.03 on a Symbol MC70 device. Is it possible to configure datawedge to automatically remove leading zeros from our barcodes? example... our barcode look like 00000012345. When we scan it, we just want it to come in as 12345. Is this possible?

Thanks

Prefix/Suffix Dialogs
The Prefix/Suffix Dialogs allows configuration of DataWedge options.
Two data entry fields are used to display and allow entry or editing of prefix and
suffix strings. The prefix string, if present, is transmitted before the data for any
barcode scanned. The suffix string, if present, is transmitted after the data for any
barcode scanned.
The following checkboxes are used to display and allow modification of various
DataWedge options:
Allow escapes in prefix/suffix (default = disabled)
Enabling this option allows escape sequences to be embedded in prefix and
suffix strings. Escape sequences allow non-textual data to be transmitted as
part of the prefix or suffix string. All escape sequences begin with the backslash “\”
character. The supported escape sequences are:
\b Backspace
\f Form feed
\n New line (line feed)
\r Carriage return

    \t Tab
    \xHH ASCII character represented in Hexadecimal notation (e.g \x3F)
    Note: consult a standard ASCII chart for suitable values.
    \vHH Virtual key code represented in Hexadecimal notation (e.g \x3F)
    Note: consult the Microsoft Windows header file WinUser.h for suitable values.
    Send data (default = enabled)
    Disabling this option prevents the actual data from being transmitted. The prefix and suffix
    strings, if present, will still be transmitted.
    Don't treat data as text (default = disabled)
    Enabling this option causes data to be read as binary data and transmitted in hexadecimal
    notation with 2 hexadecimal digits per binary byte of data.
    Send ENTER key after suffix (default = disabled)
    Enabling this option causes an ENTER key (VK_RETURN virtual key code) to be transmitted
    following all other data (prefix, barcode, and suffix).
    Send TAB key after suffix (default = disabled)
    Enabling this option causes a TAB key (VK_TAB virtual key code) to be transmitted following
    all other data (prefix, barcode, and suffix).
    Send keys only to Pocket IE (default = disabled)
    Enabling this option turns on AutoPIE mode which is discussed later in this document.
    All options changed in the Prefix/Suffix Dialogs are saved in the registry and in a
    DataWedge.reg file and hence will persist across a warm or cold boot of the device.

ı have mc 7090 using windows mobile 6.1 ı use datawedge 3.2.4 ı want o scan code 128 type barcodes but its not reading. I was using earlier 2.0.2 version and checked symbologies...

Hello Osman, in the default settings of datawedge is an issue with barcode length for code128. Please check it and setup the specific length, that you want to use.
Klick on the DataWedge icon, select Standard Configurations, go to Scanner, Decoders, Code128 and select the min and max value.

The imager or scanner on my MC70 will not scan a bar code.

Do you have any software on the MC70 to use the scanner. You can use Datawedge if your software does not integrate into the device directly.

You can download the software from devzone.symbol.com.

Barcode scanner for symbol MC70 is not working. The red beam shows when the button is pressed but when I scan a barcode nothing happens. Thanks, Pari Benson

Hello is_bsp,
which scanning application are you using? You could test the functionality by installing the manufacturer's application called DataWedge, provided here for download http://support.symbol.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=12743&sliceId=&dialogID=190394078&stateId=1%200%20190388513

MC70 Scanner does not fire the scan ray every time the button is depressed. Also not scanning when it does fire.

If you are using Datawedge as your scanning applicaiton then the scanning varies depending on teh setting and what type of barcoeds you want to read. Contact me www.datexcorp.com and we can walk you through it at no charge

Can't use scanner

You will need to download an application from www.symbol.com called DATAWEDGE. It is free and very easy to use. This application will enable you to scan on to any other application on your MC70.

Datawedge blocks the camera

The camera and scanner on the MC55xx share the same interrupt. While Datawedge 3.x is running, it has control of both devices and causes the behavior you're seeing. If you stop Datawedge before starting up the camera app (for example), it'll work just fine.

Why Motorola thought interrupt sharing for two commonly used hardware devices is a good idea, I'll never know.

Im using DataWedge v1.0 for scanning the barcode in Motorola MC55.How can i get scanned data from DataWedge to my application.i.e where DataWedge will store the scanned information.Thanks.

You need to be in an application first. For example, launch mobile Excel and make sure your cursor is in a cell. When you scan, it will enter into that cell. Just make sure the cursor is in the cell you are trying to get the info into before you scan (If it's not working, the app you're running may not be compatible with the scanning function, but I've never seen this).

Oddly enough, from what I've seen, if you just scan something without having an app launch, I've seen the MC70 default to the phone function and try to dial the number scanned.
