Hello, I'm a lurker on this group. I have no artistic ability, but I like to see the art, and the art farts are occasionally humorous. Anyway, where I work we do a lot of bar-coding and scanning to help prevent typos in the inventory system. We are implementing a new system and have a need to be able scan a code that would be the equivalent of pressing the down arrow. In the past we've been able to barcode spaces and tabs and Carriage returns, but I'm stumped on down arrow. Is it a real character (I know it's probably not ASCII)? We are currently using a 3 of 9 barcode font to print the barcodes. I realize this is off topic and I apologize if it is too far off. This was one of the places I thought might be good to ask. If anyone can help or point me to a better place that would be much appreciated. Also, please keep posting art, I really enjoy it. drax
