    Mary, It is suprisingly simple. Bar Code scanning devices connect to a PC and emulate keyboard entry. Therefore just connect the scanner to the PC, and then whatever you scan will be submitted to the application like you had typed it in. Of course you will need to have the correct field on the screen for the scanner to send the info to just like you would if you were going to type it in.

    That is probably where you will need to do the work - customizing the application so that it works correctly with keyless data entry. FYI - scanners can even be programmed to append or not append a carriage return to the bar code data that was decoded.

    There is no barcode scanning functionality in Dynamics CRM. However most (or all - I'm not sure on that) barcode scanners work like keyboards, which means that the scanned data is typed like you've typed it on a keyboard. The software cannot decide wether the source of the input is the scanner or the keyboard. Therefore it should be no problem to include the barcode data as a custom attribute.
