In a form, I would like to have a button there that when pressed will print a
label with bar codes. The bar code label contains the information on the
current selected record.

Help!
 
There are a number of considerations when printing barcodes.

First you have to decide whether to go with an ActiveX control or a barcode
font. If you decide to go with a font you have to know how to encode the
barcode (most of them are not a simple representation of the text) but most
importantly you have to know which barcode you are going to use.
 
Thanks Terry.

Do you have a sample program I can study? I am still new in MS Access.

Do you have a sample
 
You have to make the decisions first, then you can start worrying about
samples.
