ANYONE KNOW HOW TO PUT DATA IN THEN PRINT IT AS A BARCODE?
 
Create your report with the relevant field included. Then set the font porperty of the field to whichever barcode font you intend to use (ie barcode39).
 
FYI. I don't know if your scanners will do the same, I am using Barcode39 right now and it took me awhile to figure it out, but our scanners can't read just the barcode, because it reads it with "*" on each end of the info line. If you experience any problems with reading the barcode, this might be why.
 
Also, you may have to set the font size to 18 and then layer 2 or 3 copies of the control on top of one another with the Top property of the control slightly lower than the one previous.
 
Excuse me, it reads the "*" on the end and at the beginning.
