I don't know wheter this method would effect in Baan LN. But I had achieved to print Bar Code in Baan IV's report.

In report, before print the field which you want to output Bar Code, add the following:
barcode.plot = chr$(27) & chr$(22) & "*&0" & tisfc902.plot(you origin field)

When print report, you must choose "Windows" not "D" or "Notepad" etc. And you can click "Preview".

Thank u for ur urgent reply... I will check it and let u know..

I tried what u said.. It is not working..

Really? The report field is barcode.plot, domain is tcdsca(Multi byte string). If
the origin field layout in detail.1, then at detail.1 add the code:
before.layout:
barcode.plot = chr$(27) & chr$(22) & "*&0" & tisfc902.plot

And print report choose "Windows".

try bc$() function

Thank you for your inputs.

I have tried other way. I loaded barcode font in local machine. Then when I gave "Default" (Local printer) and clicked preview, it shows barcode.

However for this barcode font has to be loaded in local machine.

It is not possible to load this font if there are 100 clients. Is there anyway out of this so that anyone can print barcode from anywhere?

Will loading of Barcode font in server will work without loading barcode font individually in each client machine?

Oh, did you use function bc$() to make it come true?

I have not used any function. I installed bar code fonts.

En, how to print Bar Code with script in Baan LN still unknow.

My company said would update System Baan Iv to Baan VI or Baan LN in 2005. But now have not done.:(

Today, I have tried bc$ function. It works perfectly..Thank you all for your contributions..

I have been told $ functions in ERP Ln are depreciated functions. It may not be available in next version of ERP Ln

Regards

Functions ending in $ essentially mean their output is a string.

Hi,

Please use bc$ to generate the barcode, it's works. For example barcode for Serial Number:

extern domain tcibd.sern SerialNumber |-- 30 chars

SerialNumber = trim$(SerialNumber) | --- better use trim if var SerialNumber is less than 30 chars, this will affect the barcode scanner reading
Barcode_SN = bc$(10,1,SerialNumber)
