    Hi

    If you just want to print a free Bar code font.
    Download a free font available over the net (like IDautoamtionHC39M) and install on your system.
    Go to reports and change the fontname property of the field to the font you have just installed.

    done...

    We print BarCode, code 39, on our sales invoice and this is what we have in our report where we want to print barcode:

    In fontname entered BC C39 3 to 1 Narrow
    In SourceExpr entered '*' + "Sales Invoice Header"."No." + '*'

    What is your item#?
    Did you entered '*' or just * in the expression?

    Can your barcode reader read Code 39?
    Usually I do something like this <Text Var> := '1234567890';
    Then in SourceExpr I entered '*' + <Text Var> + '*'

    Hi

    Try this really a basic step -

    Open MS word and enter (123456789) and select Font as IDAutomationHC39M or the one which you are using. * It will look like a barcode.

    Print and try to scan this code.

    If its working then
    try to amend your code
    else
    try to amend your scanner.

    Find another barcode font. If there is no free, than for sure there are not free font. Every barcode font is dedicated for some sizes.

    i've tried code39 on very small labels and it works. So maybe your reader is not good enough :(

    Could be one of many reasons -- just a few tips I didn't already see:

    - Make sure there is ample whitespace around the barcode, the left and right especially.
    - Print it at a good DPI (minimum 300), don't print in draft quality.
    - Don't use an inkjet printer.

    Either way, I seriously doubt this problem has anything to do with NAV. Do some testing in MS Word until you get it working.
