Can access be programed to work with a barcode scanner; in other words, scan
an items barcode and have Access input the information onto a form?

Yes. Most barcode readers look to the computer as if they were
attached to the keyboard; data scanned in just seems to be from a very
fast accurate typist.

Given that, you can set the focus to a form control, scan the barcode,
and the data will go into that control.
