I Often use IDAutomation to generate barcode like generating datamatirx in Excel.But recently i meet some problems.

In a class that I have in my web site I'm Importing

Imports IDAutomation.Windows.Forms.LinearBarCode

Imports IDAutomation.Windows.Forms

Also in the code I'm using

Dim NewBarcode As New Barcode()

That Line works fine when I'm running the site in debug mode in my PC localhost:3552 Finaly I'm uploading the code (the all site code) in my ISP Server, when program comes to this line

Dim NewBarcode As New Barcode()

It throws me an error with the following text.

Showing a modal dialogbox or form when the application is not running in UserInterface mode is not valid. Specify The ServiceNotification or DefaultDeskTopOnly style to Display a notification from a service application.

I searcher the Internet about that; but the issue I found was mention only for a messagebox. A control which I don't have it; and I'm not using it. I suspect that the issue is coming from the

IDAutomation.Windows.Forms But I don't have any solution for this...

Is there anybody to know how to solve this issue?

JosephFor:
Try this alternative barcode generator for Infopath. It works nice!

Well, I do not think he will pay more money to buy another barcode generator. Hey, there is a forum specifically for IDautomations users, maybe you can have a look.

I think you should e-mail your question to IDAUTOMATION. Or you can try some other barcode generators.

Recently i'm studying the new tech barcode, i find so many info on the net, for me, the most attractive one is Data Matrix. i'd like to share. and about your problem, i agree Patrick Halstead's idea.

There are different types of barcodes.

Some barcode formats use 'Headers' and 'Footers' on the barcode, e.g. Barcode for ABDE33F might actually be represented as a barcode as *ABDE33F* (the stars are added).

The stars are actually special characters the barcode scanner might be looking for, before it will read the barcode.

The barcode scanner will most likely have a bunch of 'settings' to make it read certain barcode formats/standards. You have to make sure it's set to read whatever barcode format your special barcode control is outputting.
I wouldn't be surprised if the IDAutomation control can output different formats too. You have to get it all matched up.

At my work, to change our barcode scanners we have pages from the manuals with sequences of barcodes to scan, which tell the scanner how to behave.

We don't use IDAutomation though, we just use a barcode font, and our barcode format is Code39. No special controls were needed and the barcode font can be obtained free.

Depends on what you are trying to do though I guess.

Sounds like a question for idautomation.com.

I have downloaded the Demo Version of IDAutomation Linear Barcode activex control from http://www.idautomation.com/infopath/. After downloading i have added the IDAutomation Barocde as control on my Infopath form.

But the client is not able to capture the Barcode,they asked to increase the BarHeight and NarrowBarWidth of Barcode. But when i m trying to get the properties by right clicking on Barcode i was not able to find BarHeight and NarrowBarWidth properties. In Size tab of lDAutomation Linear Barcode properties, there in option to change Height and Width.But when i m changing these values height and width fo field is changing not the height and width of Barcode.
