I have used this method to read a barcode in c#.net application : Firstly please add BarcodeReader.dll to your Visual Studio project reference.As for the BarcodeReader.dllyou can search it in google. Secondlyclick Project and select Add Reference.... Thirdlyclick Browse to locate your BarcodeReader.dll and click OK.Now you can use BarcodeReader as the namespace for your .NET class project. Now begin to read barcodes in c#.net from image file: Simply pass your target barcode image file and barcode type to BarcodeReader.readBarcode method. Thenthe barcode reader control will immediately scan & output all barcodes found. C# Sample code: String[] datas = BarcodeReader.readBarcode(C://csharp-sample-code128.png BarcodeType.Code128);
