Kevin Lund Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hello, Probably a nube question. When I save the issues i scaned in the Add by Barcode window, the whole program closes. I have to restart CB 224k all over again. I checked each time to see if the comics I scanned are saved. Of the 20 times or so I used this function, twice the scans were not saved. Is there some preference I need to change the behavior somewhere? Love the program in general !! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark J. Castaneda Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hitting 'Save' in the Add by Barcode window would save your scans. That's how you save i assume. questions... -are you using a scanner we offer? If not, your scanner may not be programmed correctly (possibly adding extra action as you scan). -you scan into the 'Barcode or ISBN' field? Be sure the cursor is always active in that screen as you scan. -have you tested if you're scanner is scanning properly? As a test, you can launch a blank text document and scan a barcode a few times to see if all the digits are being picked up with no extra spaces. If you find a problem with the scanning, try resetting back to default then reprogramming for ComicBase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Lund Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 Thanks for the reply. The scanner I use is the CB older suggested Manhattan scanner. It appears to be working just fine. I've used it the several older CB versions with no problem. I tested it with Win's Notepad and it just reads the barcode numbers. I see no additional characters. It is not just the "Add by Barcode" window that closes. The whole program closes. I scan about 20 comics at a time. CB recognizes the barcodes and loads that issue as it should. It is just when I click the save button that it all shuts down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Lund Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 The program also closes unexpectedly when /Internet/Post Items for sale. I see the progress bar get to about 30% and the whole program closes. When I look in my store, there are no books listed. So I do not think it finished the upload.

Mark J. Castaneda Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The problem sounds to be unique to your computer (or db file) as we haven't heard of such behavior being reported by other users. -do you have the same problem with a different database file (not a backup of your main db)? -if you access to another computer, do you get the same trouble using your main db on it?
