 All above is result of the project. It is display in LCD laptop. For the bar code program set all "halal" product must start with 955 at front of bar code number. Either start number for example 899 program will assume it is "cannot be use". Beside that all the bar code number that not in the database, the program will display "not in the list".

WEEK8: START PROGRAMING AND DO BLOCK DIAGRAM OF PROJECT

In this week i start program the project. The result or actual program i expect done next week or at least two weeks from this week. The other side i completed do block diagram of the project. below is the block diagram of the project:

WEEK7: RESEARCH ON JAKIM AND HALAL DEVELOPMNET CENTRE

From research and my observations when visiting websites  JAKIM and Halal Industry Development Corporation, both sides are simply listing the companies and products that are halal approved. This means that the project is a promising because no longer be implemented by any party.

WEEK6: CONTINUE RESEARCH FOR VISUAL BASIC

In this week i continue research for visual basic. in the internet it have many blog and video teach about visual basic. Below is blog that i use to learn about visual basic:

WEEK5: RESEARCH AND STUDY ABOUT VISUAL BASIC

In this week i continue research and study about visual basic. Actually i do some research in lasr semester but i'll stop in half way. So this week i must continue the research and study. This week i know what the history, languages and performance for every edition that microsoft produce. At the same time i also visit the JAKIM website to determine current halal issue.

WEEK4: HISTORY OF VISUAL BASIC

 VB 1.0 was introduced in 1991. The drag and drop design for creating the user interface is derived from a prototype form generator developed by Alan Cooper and his company called Tripod. Microsoft contracted with Cooper and his associates to develop Tripod into a programmable form system for Windows 3.0, under the code name Ruby (no relation to the Ruby programming Language).
Tripod did not include a programming language at all. Microsoft decided to combine Ruby with the Basic language to create Visual Basic.
The Ruby interface generator provided the "visual" part of Visual Basic and this was combined with the "EB" Embedded BASIC engine designed for Microsoft's abandoned "Omega" database system. Ruby also provided the ability to load  dynamic link libraries containing additional controls (then called "gizmos"), which later became the VBX interface.

WEEK3: START DOING SOFTWARE

Almost finished with the hardware, this week I proceed with software. Actually in last semester I do some research how to use VISUAL BASIC. So I have little bit knowledge how to use VISUAL BASIC. Earlier in this week, I borrowed VISUAL BASIC book from BMI Resource Centre. This book explained how to use visual basic in easy way (visual quickstart guide). It is attract my attention.

WEEK2: DISCUSSION WITH SUPERVISOR AND BARCODE SCANNER TESTING

For this week I meet supervisor and discuss about what I must do for the whole final year project semester 2. In the discussion we agreed with the discussion day is Wednesday and Thursday. So that’s mean any discussion about the project is on that day in every week. I  also notified supervisor that I already buy the barcode scanner. Beside that, in this week i also do testing for my hardware barcode scanner) .

Hardware testing process:

• Plug in the usb cable
• Open notepad in windows Operation System (OS)
• Scan the barcode using scanner ARGOX AS8120
• The result will display in notepad 

 Below is the video about hardware testing.
