A method of tagged bar code data interchange includes creating electronic
and/or printed documents with tagged bar coded information, capturing and
decoding the tagged bar coded information, caching the tagged bar coded
information, parsing the bar coded data tags, stripping the data tags, and
inputting/storing the bar coded information. Business can be conducted
on-line using e-mail transmissions of video displayed tagged bar coded
information. Such tagged bar coded information can be stored and/or input
into style sheets that are in common or company-specific formats. Further,
companies can receive consumer information in a format that is easily
accessible by any portion, affiliate, subsidiary, or related entity of the
company, no matter what software system is running.
