EASESOFT ASP.NET BARCODCE WEB SERVER CONTROL INTRODUCTION

EaseSoft ASP.NET Barcode Web Server Control is full design-time and run-time support. Our ASP.NET Linear Barcode Web Controls can easily generate the barcodes on the fly to your ASP.NET web application,they won't create any temporary file. EaseSoft Linear Barcode Web Controls support most barcode symbologies including Code 39, Extended Code 39, Code 128, UCC/EAN-128,Industrial 2 of 5 Planet, Interleaved 2 of 5,Codabar, UPC A,UPC E, EAN 13, EAN 8, BOOKLAND,MSI, Code 11, Code 93. Our Controls are fully compatible with Microsoft® C#.NET, VB.NET, Borland C# Builder and Borland Delphi .NET.

USE TILDE CODE TO INPUT CONTROL CHARACTERS

You can input any ASCII character using Tilde code with the format ~ddd, d represents one digit, ddd is the ASCII value of the character. For example, if you enter the text "1234~013~010", then it will converts to "1234CRLF", CR is carriage return character and LF is new line character.
Also you can use the format ~X ( X is any upper case alpha character) to insert control codes (characters with ASCII valuse 0 to 26). For example, ~@ = NUL, ~A= ASCII 1,~G = BEL (ASCII 7), ~M = ASCII 13 (carriage return).
You can use ~1 to input FNC1 character ( ASSCII 200)

SYMBOLOGY INTRODUCTION

UPC A, UPC E, EAN 8 ,EAN 13 AND BOOKLAND
They only can be encoded numeric data, and you can add 2 digits or 5 digits supplement to the end of the string with sperator ',' ,For example, "12345678901,12345". UPC A must encode 11 digits, UPC E must encode 6 digits,EAN 8 must encode 7 digits, EAN 13 must encode 12 digits,BOOKLAND must encode 9 digits of ISBN number.
Code 128
Code 128 will automatically analyse the string to choose a better character set to encode the shortest barcode. The FNC definition in code 128 is as following: FNC1 is ASCII 200, FNC2 is ASCII 201, FNC3 is ASCII 202, FNC4 is ASCII 203.
UCC/EAN-128 input data format:
(AI)XXXX(AI)XXXX, AI is application identifier number, XXXX is data after AI. For example,(11)040901 means production date Sep 01,2004.
Codabar Start and Stop character:
It can be A,B,C or D. If you don't input one of them to be as your start and stop character, the default value "A" will be added to the encoding string.
Code 11:
Code 11 only can encode numeric data(0 to 9),the dash symbol(-). It is also known as USD-8
Code 93:
Code 93 is a continous, variable-length symbology,it can encode the full ASCII character set. Code 93 is similar to Code 39. It encodes 47 characters.

INSTALL EASESOFT ASP.NET BARCODE WEB SERVER CONTROL

Download the EaseSoftLinearControl.zip file.Then do the following procedures for installation and testing.

Create a vitual directory in IIS server, Copy easeLinear.aspx to this directory, and copy the EaseSoftLinearControl.dll to the sub folder "bin" folder of the directory you created. For example, you can copy EaseSoftLinearControl.dll to the folder C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\EaseSoftBarcodeDemo\bin, copy easeLinear.aspx to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\EaseSoftBarcodeDemo.
Register EaseSoft ASP.NET Barcode Web Server Control in visual studio.net: Open your solution or application and display the form that you want to add the barcode to. Choose View - Toolbox to display the Toolbox. Right click on the Toolbox and choose Customize Toolbox. Choose the .NET Framework Components . Choose Browse and select the EaseSoftLinearControl.dll.
After added the control to the Toolbox, you can use it just like other web control.
If you want to test EaseSoft ASP.NET Barcode Web Server Control : you can copy Demo.html to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\EaseSoftBarcodeDemo, then enter http://localhost/EaseSoftBarcodeDemo/Demo.html in your browser.
