ABarCode is a MS Access add-in that allows you to convert any information in Access reports into bar code symbols. Available bar code types are EAN-8, EAN-13, UCC/EAN-128, Code 11, Code 128, Code 39, Code 93, Codabar, UPC-A, UPC-E, Interleaved 2 of 5, Postnet, PDF417 and Code 16K. You may print several bar codes of several types in any report’s section and subreports. Check digits and start/stop codes are automatically computed and added.

Symbols may be horizontal or vertical oriented, either fixed or automatically scaled filling a Text Box area. You only have to design a report, add text boxes containing the information you want to barcode, open the ABarCode add-in, add these text boxes to ‘Barcode fields’, and select the type of bar codes you want.
