You know there are more than one type barcode available. Which barcode do you wish to process?

Start by looking at the scanner you are using: find out how it physically connects to you computer, and how it communicates with your application. Unless your project involves creating the hardware from scratch, in which case start by specifying that.

If you are buying a scanner in, you can get this from the manufacturers.

When you have that, test the info against the hardware using existing code - hyperterminal, probably, or Notepad if it emulates a keyboard - and then start working that into your application.

Sorry it's all generic, but we have no idea what scanner you are using, no idea what your app will do, and this is your homework, not ours!
