I created a database in Access 97 to print barcoded labels. (I plan on converting it to Access XP as soon as all systems in the company are upgraded.) I used the barcode fonts that came with the printer (Datamax) to print Code 39 barcodes. I now need to add the 2-D barcode and I haven't the faintest idea of where to start. The printer has the ability to print the 2-D barcodes, but I don't know how to create them. Any help would be appreciated.

I also want to buy barcode fonts so I have the option of printing the labels on a laser. Has anyone found a vendor they really like for the bar codes?
 
The easiest way to print 2D bar codes to any printer from Access would
be to use a bar code ActiveX control that is designed specifically for
the job. The best one on the market is available from TAL Technologies
You can download a demo version of their product at:
http://www.taltech.com/products/activex_barcodes.html

The demo version of the TAL Bar Code ActiveX control comes with a
sample Access database that demonstrates how to use it in Access
database reports.
