All, Thanks to everyone who shared their ideas and insights about Bar Coding and Scanners. I now have an Access Report with Bar Codes (downloaded a font from the Internet). I really appreciate the assistance.

Google "frree 3of9". There are quite a few fonts out there. Pick one that you like and download and instal it. The rules for 3of9 are very simple, you just use an asterisk as a stop and stsart character. So to put JobNum on a report, set a textbox to ="*" & Jobnum & "*" set it's font to 3of9 On 14 Feb 2013 at 12:25, David McAfee wrote: > There was even a free 3 of 9 font that I downloaded and used in one of my > projects. > > This was the site listed in the readme: > http://www.squaregear.net/fonts/(which is now blocked at my company). > > If you can't find it online anywhere, I have the zip file which contains > the font. > > HTH, > David McAfee > > On Thu, Feb 14, 2013 at 12:11 PM, Arthur Fuller <fuller.artful at gmail.com>wrote: > > > It's been a while since I've done bar codes, too.
