We are using Powerscan D8330 scanners. Due to other applications they are used on, they are configured to issue a CF/LF after each scan.

I plan to download the trial after the weekend but I was wondering if anyone had any experience switching the CR/LF to a tab?

Our environment is Rails 4, All windows clients.

thanks

chris

    I'm not entirely clear how this relates to DataTables? When you are inserting your scanned data into the database (which I presume you are doing) can you not just do a string replace?
