Well perhaps if you gave a little background on what your project is people would be more able to help. How are you interfacing with the smart card reader? Do you actually have a reader, or is this just a homework assignment?

I'd like to help you, but have no idea what you are actually looking for.

How much analysis have you done into how the smartcard works Zion?

I mean do you know what drivers are loaded to find it when it's connected, You might want to search for the DLL's that deal with that. My guess is though the companies that usually create them will have rigged it so they can't be used in your own project, so you might want to try and look for a Smart Card Projects site.

Hope this helps you find what you want.

The real trouble that i face exacerbating my situation is the fact that i have bought a kit which contains two readers acr30u and serial and cards(MCU,Memory).Now the project is on VB.I know how apdu works,but i dont know how to use it write a sample code,like login programs,which reads some data from card through API call Scardtransmit etc and apply it.The real thing is application.This site is great,thanks,But i need specifics of VB coding.Experience Holders like you might be of great help to me.

Thanks for more.(I expect more ;) )

Dear Persol,

The project is on Banking Automation System(We call ourselves Nirvana Banking Solutions.Nirvana from cash is our motto ;) ).We are attempting to provide cash free banking system Via Smart Card.But the thing is we need to know for that purpose how to write and read from card via VB coding.How to go about it in starightforward way.

A simple model would be to add username and PIN no to smart card.On the basis of that we can do the rest,without actually using smart cards further.

Expecting more... ;)

bye!

There is:
http://www.basiccard.com/index.html?mainfram.htm
However this I don't think is pure VB, I think it's their own programming kit that you can use. (Might give you an idea though)

http://www.nexusmachines.com/Software_downloads/smartcard_ocx.htm

http://www.hochfeiler.it/alvise/smartcard.htm
Shows you how program smartcards in C++ (Don't forget you could build DLL's in C and use them in VB)

This thread was about a Visual Basic SDK for Smartcards
http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/0596.html

http://www.minisdk.co.uk/examples.htm (These might be of use)
http://www.digital-laboratory.de/

Seems most companies that make reader/writers probably have software that goes with them, you might be able to find that they have an SDK that utilises their own drivers.

Lastly Zion, some people might wonder with the carding and all, like the misuse that could occur (like Phone cloning or of course cloning someones cashcard) just remember other than being illegal it can have a nasty habit of severely hampering your freedom.

If you really get stuck you might want to check newgroups alt.2600

Yes Winscard.dll does support MCU and Mem cards.ScradTransmit should work Fine,I have a demo program that works,which reader do you have? ACS?

You might notice this thread to seem in consistant, well thats because it's a merge of 3 posts on the subject of SmartCards. Just doing a little cleanup in this area.

Please note Rema, you won't have to keep starting new posts on Smartcard problems, just address them to this thread.
