Hello.

I need to print barcodes in access reports using EAN128 normalization. Is it
possible?

Thanks.

I don't know about EAN128 specifically, but generally you can print
barcodes by installing the appropriate font, then printing your
characters on the report in a control that uses that font. Some
barcodes require prefix and suffix characters - you can concatenate
those in a calculated field, and then print that.

The easiest and best way to print bar codes in reports in an
Access database is to use a bar code ActiveX control like the one
fromTAL Technologies at:
http://www.taltech.com/products/activex_barcodes.html

The TALtech bar code ActiveX control comes with a sample Access
database that demonstrates how to use it in Access reports.
You just drop the control onto the report, set a few
properties and you will be printing bar codes in a few minutes.
