Hello All
I'm very new to FoxPro and have been asked to reseach Barcode printing. Does anyone know of routines or possibly canned barcoding packages for FoxPro.

All help and suggestions are welcome. Thanks in Advance.

All you need is a barcode font. (Some printers already have them.) Then the process is no different than setting the font to Arial or Courier New. Some barcode fonts require that the information to be barcoded enclosed by '*'.
For example, *12345* will print a barcode for 12345.

The barcode format mentioned by Mike is the CODE 39 format (or 3 of 9). If that's the format you want, you can e-mail me and I'll send you a copy of the font file (TTF). Here's my address:
