I want to be able to label them electonically and have some way of distingushing them. Does anyone know of different ways of doing this? Examples: bar codes, optical, magnetic strips. Where could I find more info on these types of devices and who makes them? Thanks for all info. -- Joe Broniszewski || Philadelphia Phillies || (814) 234-8592x34 astph!joe@psuvax1.psu.edu || Systems Department || psuvax1!astph!joe
