Barcodes in a report builder report

first check the field by setting the font to something that is user readable and make sure it looks like *0*.....

If there appears a space, you'll need to use a trim function to remove the spaces.

If everything is correct, make sure your scanner is capable of reading single digits. We bought one scanner one time that could not scan anything less then 3 characters.

It works great except for the job asm number.

I'm using the right formula with the string(db.field) but it won't work.

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Jasper

You have to create a formula field (call it bc-####) and set the formula to "*" + db.field + "*". If your data value is a number, use "*" + String(db.field) + "*". Then just place the bc-#### on the report as set the font as a barcode.

How do you add barcodes to a report builder report? I want the job number field be a barcode so I change the font to a barcode font. However, I believe you have to have asterisk before and after the field. How do you go about doing this?

Thanks,
Jasper
