SFE-MSR MagStripe Extensions for Satellite Forms

What You Can Do

Include Magstripe Data in your applications

• Read Magstripes, both two and three-track cards
• Extract a single field from cards
• Check that the card reader is attached
• Obtain cardreader idenification
• Save data in Satellite Forms Tables
• Include data in hot-sync to PC

Sample Script

Here is a Satellite Forms Script that reads a three-track card:

QM="?"
ptr = 1
data = GetMagStripeData("format")
Length = Len(Data)
While ptr < Length
if Mid(data,ptr,1) = QM Then Exit While
T1 = T1 & Mid(data,ptr,1)
ptr = ptr + 1
Wend
ptr = ptr + 3
While ptr < Length
if Mid(data,ptr,1) = QM Then Exit While
T2 = T2 & Mid(data,ptr,1)
ptr = ptr +1
Wend
ptr = ptr + 3
While ptr < Length
if Mid(data,ptr,1) = QM Then Exit While
T3 = T3 & Mid(data,ptr,1)
ptr = ptr +1
Wend

That's all! GetMagStripeData reads the card and returns the data. The statements which follows organize it by track. Trigger the script with a button. The user taps the button and swipes the card to read it. The script displays it in fields T1, T2 and T3.
