In this case it is an MC9090 mobile. I am acutally going to hardcode it to send a prefix & suffix & use that to flag if it was manual or scanned. Since they should only be scanning numbers I will just use a character sequence. Then I will just strip them out & populate the needed field. Hoping this will work since I assumed I would get the answer you just gave.
