Barcode formatting within Crystal 2

[jbenusa]

Does CR have the capability to convert information (alphanumeric)into a Code 39 barcode format?

 

[gol4]

use the  (NumberToCode39 (, )) function I have on CR 6 so assume it is avaliable in higher modules as well

Of course to print a barcode you will need a code 39 barcode font installed on your PC.

Hi,

I am new to Crystal Reports and Would like know from you guys

I am also looking for a solution that will allow me to print barcodes in Crystal Reports. I used help in Crystal Reports and got the function for code 39. However, you need the font. After further research, I came across a company by the name of ID Automation who sells the fonts. Personally, I am interested in CODE 128 fonts. ID Automation has the UFL (User Function Library) that lets you use barcodes in Crystal. As of this date, I have not tested to see if their font and UFL works (I'm awaiting purchasing approval from my company).
Hope this helps.

Hello,
Hopefully I can help a little on this subject.
So how does a person use Bar Codes in Seagate Crystal Reports? In order for a person to be able to view a Bar Code they first need to obtain a set of Bar Code fonts from a software vendor such as Azalea. Once a set of these fonts have been obtained, they then need to be installed on the user’s computer. Also required to use the bar codes with Crystal Reports are two DLL’s which can be downloaded and must be placed in the “X:\WINDOWS\CRYSTAL” directory, where X represents the drive letter that holds these directories. The two dll’s that you will need are called ‘UFLBCODE.DLL’ if you are using the 16 bit version, or ‘U2LBCODE.DLL’ if you are using the 32bit version. Once this is done, crystal's function would be: Barcode39C(“ABC123ab”)
Returns a Code 39 Bar Code that when scanned returns the value “ABC123abc”.

you need to download 3 of 9 barcode font. this is free on the internet. or let me know and i will e-mail it to you. Then you have to use stringtocode39() within a formula then change the font of that field to 3 of 9 barcode. rscott1@ptd.net

I have a code 128 barcode font already, is there a UFL for NumberToCode128() ???

If not, does anyone know the formula for converting values to code 128 Barcodes?
