Hi William

We have had very good results with the PSC QuickScan6000+ laser scanner:

It is partly rubber coated for protection.

You have to decide on reading distance (laser for long distance, CCD and similar for close distance) and if they will be dropped on the floor.
Also, you can have wireless scanners now.

As for printing, we use Access reports only. I see no reason for using Word as for the barcode, but you may have other needs, of course.

...have a need to print bar codes on badges that can be easily and reliably 
scanned at a trade show entrance.

...the database is A2K3 but the data is merged to WXP to print the badges.

...the badge bar codes are printed with HP LJ 4050s

...printing the bar codes in Word using code 39 font works well but doesn't 
produce the enter/exit control codes

...also need to know if anyone has experience with a particular hand held 
scanner or manufacturer that you would ...or would not ...recommend.

...and how you've collected the data from the scanners.

...and anything else I should be aware of before leaping.

...anyone?
