Sorry - 1 more thing. The printer has to be defined to the system as an IPDS printer. -----Original Message----- From: owner-bpcs-l@MIDRANGE.COM [mailto:owner-bpcs-l@MIDRANGE.COM]On Behalf Of Rob Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2000 7:30 PM To: BPCS-L@MIDRANGE.COM Subject: RE: Barcode module for BPCS If you have an IPDS printer (we used a 6400-series printer), then all you have to do, in the externally-defined printfile is use the BARCODE keyword on the field you want to bar-code.

It could easy enough but I was wondering if BPCS had a facility where you could turn on barcode printing for selected data.
