    You don't make a barcode by just printing the string you want in a barcode font. No barcodes are that simple. About the simplest is Code39, and it has a * at each end of the code. So if you wanted to print a barcode 12345 you would send *12345*. The * signifies the start and end of the barcode to the reader; the reader stripds the *'s off and only sends the 12345 to your app.

    Others are much more complex, such as Code 128 which has a check-digit at least, and can also switch between any of 3 internal code sets.

    So you really need to know the rules of the barcode you are using; BarCode1 is a good place to start. He expains most of the symbologies, and there are links to various other sites. You might, for instance, find a dll or ocx for the symbology you are using.
