SSRS barcodes
OK, they need to have a zone on here called "translate boss request into IT solution" Anyway, I'm a SQL Developer and my boss asked me today if there is a way to use SSRS to translate a column in SQL(barcode info) into a real barcode on the report.. Apparently Crystal can do this but it appears SSRS requires some sort of software that provides that function. What I learned today was it some numbers that requires some sort of function to turn it into a valid barcode.. I know very little about this stuff..

From my opinion the use of barcode fonds wil do the trick. Restart de ssrs service to refresh the available fonds.
off topic: In the past we used a lot of kyocera printers with special fonds in production environments, this worked perfectly in the dos/novell days.

for SQL Sever 2008 you have to upgrade to use a special bar code software.
