   Old Barcode	Returns items with a matching pre-conversion barcode number.

   NOTES:  
   
   •  Filter parameters are cumulative.  That is, the more parameters you enter, the fewer items will be returned.  For example, if you enter a category and a keyword, only items with matches in BOTH fields will be returned.  This applies to parameters on all the tabs.
   
   •  Because this information is specific, if you search by ID, no other search criteria will be used.
