I recently purchased a 2D Barcode reader. When scanning a U.P.S. barcode, I get about half of the information I want, and about half of it looks to be encrypted in some way. I have heard there is a UPS DLL.

Example - Everything in bold seems to be encrypted, while the non-bold text contains valuable, legitimate data.

[)>01961163522424800031Z50978063UPSN12312307G:%"6*AH537&M9&QXP2E:)16(E&539R'64O

In other words, this text seems OK - and I can parse the information [)>01961163522424800031Z50978063UPSN123123 ...

While, this data seems to be encrypted ... 07G:%"6*AH537&M9&QXP2E:)16(E&539R'64O

Any Ideas???
