String Passing

[ttom321]

Hi everyone,

I've been having an incredibly amature problem ( [ttom]--------[extreme novice] ). I'm trying to update an old colleague's program who left to include a 2D barcode reading feature.

The barcode scanner is setup to act as a virtual keyboard and enters the data into a string box which I then pass to another string box and clear the first one so that the next barcode doesn't get added onto the end of the last reading. But for some reason the first string box clears successfully but the second string is never updated.

For the life of me I can't figure out why. The image below is within the main while loop. Tried to look through the internet without any luck, hope you all can help.

You are constantly clearing the control with that property node.  Get rid of the Val(Sgnl) part of the property node.
