The Control

dBarcode Active DLL is an Active-X/Automation Controls that allows barcode images to be created within the user’s own software. In most cases the DLL will identify itself as Active Barcode Control.

A barcode image may be displayed on screen, printed on a printer, saved to a disk file, or passed to the Windows clipboard for incorporation into another Windows application.

Although primarily designed for Microsoft's Visual Basic, dBarcode Active DLL may be employed with other Active-X-enabled applications, such as Delphi or the Visual Basic for Applications provided in Microsoft Office. Examples provided in this manual are based on Visual Basic 6 and Office 2000.

Users should note that the encoding calculations are performed when the component’s image is created, by being used, accessed or copied. Information properties (such as PictureWidth) are not available until the image has been created.
