Michael, I'm also using WASP 39 LC and am barcoding a lot more than UPC's. Names, catalog numbers, cities, states, zips (don't ask, it's what the customer wanted) ... to name a few. The asterisks are the key.

Coppage, Jr. -----Original Message----- From: MB Software Solutions [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 12:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Barcoding in VFP reports Been awhile since I implemented barcoding strategies in my app, but here I go again! The last time, I padded out the number for 8 positions; this time, that seems like overkill. As long as I append an asterisk to either side (I'm using WASP 39 LC font), I can have the number be *any* length, right? (I was thinking just 5 positions this time.) tia, --Michael -- Michael J.
