Hello, I need to print 'UCC / EAN 128 C' barcodes using Report Builder. However, I cannot find this type of Barcode in Report Builder. Could you please give me some suggestions? Thank You
ReportBuilder's support for the Code 128 barcode symbology can be used to print UCC\EAN 128 barcodes. Code 128 is general purpose symbology that can be used to generate UCC/EAN 128 barcodes.
1. Here is a link that came up when I searched in Google. It is for another barcode product, but it explains the symbology.
2. The TppBarCode component contains an AutoEncode property that defaults to True. To support UCC/EAN 128 you will need set AutoEncode to False and manually encode the data. See the AutoEncode topic in the RBuilder.hlp. From there you can access a related topic on manually encoding Code 128 data.
