Here is the Job/Asm/Opr barcode that I'm using for MES:
"*" + Trim({OPENJOBS_VIEW.JobNum}) + "$I" +
trim(totext({JobAsmbl.AssemblySeq},0)) + "$I" +
trim(totext({JobOper.OprSeq},0)) + "$I" + "*"
We also have Symbol LS2208 scanners. I had to experiment with the
settings to get it to work the tabs. I narrowed it down to about 50
parameters. It only takes a minute or so to scan them all in so I
haven't bothered to narrow it down further.
