Driver License Barcode Generator

Reading is actually the easy part. Most of you on this blog are pretty keen and might’ve picked up on how the raw data in that string worked and thought, “I could parse that!” As mentioned previously, the biggest catch out there is adoption. It’s one thing to figure out how to parse some values from a long text string, but writing them out correctly and following the AAMVA spec is what’s really holding states and countries back. LEADTOOLS makes it incredibly easy to make sure your data follows the specifications, AND can write the barcode. So get out there and code something that’s so easy, even a sloth can do it!

Ever wonder what's in that barcode on the back of your driver's license? I just got a new toy that I'm playing around with, and I'd like to incorporate A5 to allow me to use it for something useful. It's a Handheld 2D Barcode Scanner, and I want to use it to scan the barcode on the back of a driver's license, then populate forms with the resulting data. I'm using a special 'sample' Maryland driver's license for testing, but it conforms to the AAMVA standards for universal license data coding. (In other words, it should pretty much work the same way on a license from any state using the AAMVA format.) So what's in the that funny looking barcode? Rich, For this application, it looks like the best approach would be to scan it into a text area, then parse it with extract_string().

Information about the generator of US SSN, Driver License, State ID, Passport, and Tax ID numbers and data This tool generates information from algorithms, it does not produce actual issued documents nor facsimiles, specimen or samples of real documents.

So, for example, if the bar code was read into a variable named BarCodeText, you could have: vAddress = extract_string(BarCodeText,'DAG','DAI') Then, as Mauricio suggested, for the name, you could use the word() to break that up The only issue I see is if the street name is Adai street, or if the person is named Dagwood. To handle that, you could use the occurs() function to check how may times it appears. So if 'DAG' appears twice, then you know there could be a problem. Hi Rich, Parsing a barcode, yours included, is relatively trivial. There are a myriad of character parsing functions that are usable in Alpha, and there is nothing special here. The real issue, is that a barcode scanner will scan the data into where ever the cursor is. If the cursor is not where you need data, the barcode characters will be entered wherever it is.

If you could get the cursor to move to a particular field or dialog box 1st, then the data entered can be used to fill in data or invoke a find, or whatever you needed to be done. This is exactly what my does for the desktop side. (which incidently the trial version has a working function feature that has a test mode that allows you to see all characters that the scanner sends, even special keys) within Alpha Five. Doing it for the web side requires handling a javascript key event, which Alpha does not have.

It could be done, but each of the 5 most common browsers all handle key events differently (some in major ways, some minor). Unfortunately, there is no current web standard for key events (unfortunately). Parni s ploschadi 1967 torrent pdf.

If one chooses a specific browser, then it is much simpler problem. Well thanks to the input from everyone, I'm getting closer. I'm trying Pat's suggestion of the 'exact_string' expression, and it seems to parse all of the fields correctly, but I'm running into a weird problem that I'm hoping someone might have an answer to.

One of the parsed fields is called 'DBB_DOB,' and it results in a character string date of the person's date of birth. Next to it, I created another field called 'DOB,' and I'm using the below expression to convert the string to a 'normal' type date: DATE_VALUE(VAL(LEFT(DBB_DOB,4)),VAL(SUBSTR(DBB_DOB,5,2)),VAL(SUBSTR(DBB_DOB,7,2))) Again, it works correctly, and the DBB_DOB string of 19560115 converts correctly to, but when I try to start a new record, I immediately get an error message that says: 'MONTH IS OUT OF RANGE.' Then if I try to close out of the table or delete that record, I get another message that says 'ENTER MUST BEGIN FIRST.' And then I'm stuck, because it won't go past that point.
