Greetings All:
I would like to know if anyone out there knows of a good
source of information on barcode decoding.  I've checked
with our university library and came up with only one or
two articles in tech magazines.  As far as books go, no
luck there.  Any kind of information would be helpful,
either up to date or older journals would be fine.  I'm
mainly interested in 3 of 9, 2 of 5, and UPC codes.  I'm
trying to put together an inventory control system for
a small automotive parts warehouse.  Due to a limited
budget, a commercial unit is beyond my range {I had a
hard enough time getting these people to buy a computer
in the first place}  Any leads would be greatly appreciated
as I'm not getting too far on my own.

Thanks in advance!
