Hi guys

I am new in SQL RS. I want to print bar codes on my report. Is it
possible with RS ? Do I need external procedure ? Any suggestion will
be welcome !
Thanks

Jean-Marc,

In one of our projects I ran into the same requirement and was able to
handle it very easily with a barcode font. There are a number of sources
barcode fonts on the Internet which you can find quickly using the search
engine of your choice. Once you install the barcode font on your system you
can just select it in the report designer and your reports will display
barcodes. Just remember that any system running the report that uses the
barcode font will have to have the barcode font installed in order for them
to work.

Hope this helps.
