print labels...

edited February 2002 in General
I want to print labels with barcodes. The user enters the first number to
assign to the labels, and the number of labels to print. There is no data
source for it, I simply want to print x number of labels, incrementing the
values with each label, starting with the first number. It seems that I
would have to create a table/query from which the report would get the data,
but this seems unnecessary for this simple task. Is there a way to do it
without creating another table/query/data source?

    There are examples of using the JIT pipeline in the main demos project in
    your installed ..\RBuilder\Demos\.

    JIT Pipeline works great, thank you. New problem: I would like the labels to
    have the barcode stretch all the way across them (labels are 1x2 5/8) but
    when I size the Barcode component, it does not stretch beyond its size. when
    i print the labels, the barcode is not centered as it was in the designer.
    the text of the barcode is centered within the barcode itself but not the
    entire length of the component. The alignment properties only apply to the
    text within the barcode. is there a way to fix this?

    I want the labels to look like this, and this is what they look like in the
    designer.

    Company Name

    |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
    1234

    This is what they look like when printed.

    Company Name

    |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
    1234

    How can I fix this?
