Re: Intelligent Mail Barcode

Hey Mark, what's undefined?

John, you haven't specified the barcode to print. You just named a field.

Here is a site for the BARCODE keyword in DDS.

For V5R2

Your printer file should be something like this...

A            BARCODEP      65      3 20BARCODE(CODE128 2)

CODE128 tells it what type of barcode to print.  2 is the height of the
barcode.

Unfortunately, I didn't do my barcode using a printer file.  Instead I used
a software package.  So I'm not sure about making this a CODE128 subset C
with FNC1 in a printer file. The subset C is what confuses me and I would
like to know the answer to that too.  But you can fake the FNC1 by putting
it at the beginning of the variable BARCODEP.  Like the previous post,

BARCODEP = X'8F' + %Trim(PostalRouting) + X'8F' + TrackingNumber;


You find this site helpful too.
