Set bcGen = New Barcode

bcGen.Configure config

Dim bcImage As BarcodeImage

Set bcImage = bcGen.CreateBarcode(data)

config is the configuration string obtained from VBD

bcImage.SaveAs fileName

fileName extension defines format:

*.tif saved in TIFF Group IV format
*.bmp saved in Windows Bitmap format
*.pcx saved in PCX format

Copy barcode image to Clipboard:

bcImage.CopyToClipboard

Convert to Windows Bitmap object:

bmp = bcImage.SaveToHBitmap

bmp object should be deleted after use with Windows DeleteObject(bmp) call

Convert to WordML string:

txtWordML = bcImage.GetWordML(titleText, altText)

Rotate barcode image:

bcImage.RotateRight

bcImage.RotateLeft
