Download the latest VBA Macros (New version 5.2) - Our macros will generate check digits, add the start and stop characters and format the return string for one of our barcode fonts. The macros can be easily integrated into your application for automation purposes and you don't have to be a programmer to use them - they are easy enough for intermediate and advanced users of Excel or Access. The macros consist of a VBA module with many functions which are defined here. The macros are free to use as long as you are using them with one of our licensed barcode fonts. They are compatible with Microsoft Office 97, Office 2000, Office XP and Office 2003 running on Windows® or Macintosh systems. The unique encoding in our fonts and macros allow cross-platform support between Macintosh and Windows systems.
Download the latest Crystal Reports UFL (New version 5.04) - The Crystal Reports UFL is free to use as long as you are using it with one of our licensed barcode fonts. This UFL is designed to work with Crystal Reports 7.0 and above. It is also compatible with the version of Crystal Reports that is distributed with Visual Studio .NET and the implementation is the same as described in this tutorial. The UFL plug-in is supplied in an easy to install executable file. Once installed, barcode functions appear in the formula editor. These functions can be easily applied to fields on reports that require barcodes.

| 5. IDAutomation Plug 'n Play USB Scanner Kit |
This
durable and ergonomically designed IDAutomation Plug 'n Play USB
scanner kit is the best value handheld scanner, with hands-free stand,
in its class for the low price of $145. It offers the performance of a
laser scanner with no moving parts to wear out at a lower cost. The CCD
scan engine in this scanner can focus on smaller barcodes better than
most lasers scanners and still read large barcodes. It scans linear bar
codes that are up to 4.2" wide from near contact to 10" away at 200
scans per second.
The SC5USB scanner connects via a USB port, perfect for laptops and PDA devices. It contains its own built-in decoder so information scanned appears as if it had been typed from the keyboard.
