When set to TRUE the toolkit will search for patch code barcodes.  

Default value =   FALSE

Visual Basic using the OCX

[form.]SoftekBarcode.ReadPatchCodes = value

Visual Basic using the DLL

Private Declare Function stGetReadPatchCodes Lib "SoftekBarcode" () As Boolean
Private Declare Function stSetReadPatchCodes Lib "SoftekBarcode" (ByVal newValue As Boolean) As Boolean
stSetReadPatchCodes (value)
value = stGetReadPatchCodes ()

Visual Basic using COM

oBar = CreateObject("SoftekATL.Barcode")
.........
oBar.ReadPatchCodes = value
value = oBar.ReadPatchCodes

VB.Net using the DLL

Private Declare Function stGetReadPatchCodes Lib "SoftekBarcode" () As Boolean
Private Declare Function stSetReadPatchCodes Lib "SoftekBarcode" (ByVal newValue As Boolean) As Boolean
stSetReadPatchCodes (value)
value = stGetReadPatchCodes ()

VB.Net using the SoftekBarcode Wrapper Class

Dim barcode As SoftekBarcode
..........
barcode.SetReadPatchCodes(value)
value = barcode.GetReadPatchCodes()

VB.Net using the SoftekBarcodeLib Managed Component

Dim barcode As SoftekBarcodeLib.BarcodeReader
Dim value As Bool
..........
barcode = New SoftekBarcodeLib.BarcodeReader()
..........
barcode.ReadPatchCodes = value
value = barcode.ReadPatchCodes

Visual C++ Using the OCX

BOOL GetReadPatchCodes() ;
void SetReadPatchCodes(BOOL value);

Visual C++ Using the DLL

BOOL __stdcall stGetReadPatchCodes();
BOOL __stdcall stSetReadPatchCodes(BOOL bNewValue);
