Title: Research and Findings 

In this week, my research focusing on how to develop the program for my system. The main function of the program is to get the information that has been scanned by the barcode scanner and stores it into the database. After much consideration, I chose to use Microsoft Visual Basic. It because, is it simple to use and there are a lot of tutorials about the software.

Microsoft Visual Basic



Microsoft Visual Basic is a third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft for its COM programming model first released in 1991. Microsoft intends Visual Basic to be relatively easy to learn and use. There are also a lot of tutorials for creating a program using Visual Basic. Visual Basic was designed to accommodate beginner programmers. Programming in VB is a combination of visually arranging components or controls on a form, specifying attributes and actions for those components, and writing additional lines of code for more functionality. Since VB defines default attributes and actions for the components, a programmer can develop a simple program without writing much code.
