Thanks Razzak, I looked at the 2D barcode in RBase 9.5, but I could not find any reference to the "Matrix", which I believe allows for the multiple data elements my customer is requiring.
The 2D barcode in Rbase contains ECC Level Auto and 0 thru 8. I love the context sensitive help at the bottom of the right click menu from the object. From it I learned that this is Error Correction levels and I assume I should leave it at the default "Auto" The barcode they are asking for is referred to as ECC 200, which I think may be different from the above ECC level above. I found a web site referring to ECC format numbers 0 thru 29, which appears to allow for different Max Alphanumeric capacities. This looks pretty cool, but I am far from understanding 2D and Matrix barcodes. I'm still hunting for good info to further my knowledge.
