Business Card QR Code

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Mxries
I would like to use BarcodeReader to read business cards that have only a QR code.
The resulting text value is then:
BEGINNING:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
FN: XX
N: XX
TEL;WORK;VOICE:XXX
EMAIL;WORK;INTERNET:XXX
ADR;WORK:;;XXX
ORG:XXX
END:VCARD
However, this is in a field. I would like to divide this to have the individual values then in a SharePoint list.
How can I divide this one text value into individual ones?
Thanks already!

    HI,

     

    This is a real issue unless you have control of the QR Code format...

     

    I normally us the  "|" (normally below the backspace on English keyboard)  It is call a PIPE. 

     

    Here is sample code:

     

    Substitute((Last(FirstN(ForAll(Split(TextInput1.Text,"|"), {Result: ThisRecord.Value}),2)).Result)," ","")

    This takes the data in the barcode, sets to the first location in the string, then hunt for the second "|" and stores everything until the preceding one is stored. also, it removes the spaces in the barcodes also.

    you can try replacing the "|" with the ";" or ":" and it may work but there is preceding stop so may pull all until the next delimiter before.
