Barcode Scanning
I have a barcode font that needs "*" in front and behind the data to work.
If I have a report that has a Name and control source of "PN", how can I add these easy? Thanks, Aaron

Aaron,
Not sure what you want to do. Are you saying you want to concatenate the asterisks onto the PN. If so.... = "*" & PN & "*" -- hth Al Campagna Microsoft Access MVP http://home.comcast.net/~cccsolutions/index.html "Find a job that you love... and you'll never work a day in your life."

Yes, a start and stop for the barcode. I used the exact formula below and
it print error. I found a forum that says to use a active X control for barcodes but.. $700.. WOW "Al Campagna" wrote: Aaron, Not sure what you want to do.

What Al suggested should work fine as I have used that for years with a simple barcode font.
