Question
I don't know if your my man but he goes..
I am in a business where we send cartons out to different destinations that need bar code labeling.  I have made a label in Code 39, that reads 2 of the 3 bar codes that are on the label.. All are in the same code 39 format.. The scanner will not read the third scan.. Why not?  Where do I get an answer from?

Answer
You are creating the labels using a Code 39 barcode font? Each box gets three different labels? And your scanner can only read two of them?

I know that you sometimes have to use a delimiting character (I use an *) at the beginning and end of the actual barcode so the sacanner can read it. Are you doing that?

Hope this helps,
