Hi, I want to print a number in a Access Report but in Barcode font. Can anyone tell me how to do it in any vb code or something? I've tried with a EAN13 FONT but my barcode reader cannot read it
Normally you just need to put the field you need "barcoded" in the source query of the report. Format this field for the barcode. (Like, with some codes, the data has to be surrounded by asterisks, so if I need to barcode the field ID, then I have an expression in the query that reads: Bar_ID: "*" & [ID] & "*").
Then just put that field (Bar_ID) on the report as a textbox, and in the format properties, set the font to your Barcode font.
