Barcodes in VS 2008

32 Views

Hello,

I haven't touched a Crystal report in over 5 years, so forgive me if sound a little bit out of touch here. We are using the Crystal Reports version that comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 for a C# Windows App (Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008) and need to add some barcodes to a report. I've been reading that Crystal 2008 has built-in barcode functionality, but i'm guessing that is not available to me with this version ? I've been searching all afternoon and believe the answer is no. I didn't really want to have to download these barcode fonts from a 3rd party like Azalea or whatever (isn't there like a Microsoft standard barcode font to download or anything ??), and definitely do not want to pay for a font. But do I have a choice ?

So I was just hoping if someone could send me a quick little bullet list on what I need to do to get these barcodes working.

Thanks
