Question : C#. Symbol LS9203 bar code scanner.  Making a device output to a single text box.

I am using a symbol LS9203 with the USB connection.  Basically this thing acts like a keyboard wedge, reads a barcode and outputs the info.  Does anyone know if it is possible to force the output from the scanner to a  specific text box?  Ie, on the application form, I have a text box for taking barcode information, and a text box for searching by filter.  I would like the user to be able to go from searching to scanning without having to click on the scanner box...ie if the application could detect that the info was coming from the scanner it would automatically switch focus to the scanner box.

Any ideas?

Thanks

There is a tutorial about doing this with a USB scanner (acts just like a KB wedge) at http://www.idautomation.com/scanenable/
Also, you can encode the tab function in the scanner to move to different fields.
