My turn to ask a question. :-)
We have a situation in our application under test where we need to "scan" a barcode in order to get the numerical equivalent of the barcode to be able to enter into another field in our application. The barcode is an image on screen so it's something we can do a region capture of.
So... does anyone have any little tool or apparatus that can be called via automation code for decoding a barcode based upon an image?
Awesome. Let me give that a shot and see how it works.

I've bookmarked this for my own future use... however, for our current solutions, turns out that we're not going that route...
Thanks for the link baxatob!
Seems like there quite a few of them.

Links to a few others in there. And if you click into them, the comments on the repo's tend to contain links to others! I daresay there is likely to be something amongst all these that could be converted into a script extension without too much hassle ...
