Code Examples, and Demos
"Once
you install the package, you are ready
to go. Use snippets from the sample code
directly within your app and distribute
royalty free. I printed bar codes on a
600 DPI laser and they look fantastic...
TAL has the market on this one."

Please note: This
demo is for intermediate to advanced programmers
that are interested in reviewing sample VB and
C++ source code to learn how the TAL Bar Code
DLLs are called from an application. This demo
includes sample source code for VB and C/C++
only (32 bit).

Note: The
samples below contain a demo of only the Code 39 DLL.
If you would like to use any of the other bar code symbologies
you will need to purchase the commercial release of the
DLLs. The B-Coder Demo is easier to use if you are only
interested in demonstrating the quality of the bar codes
created by the DLLs. B-Coder is an application program
that uses the same bar code graphic generation code as
the DLLs.
Simple
Visual Basic DLL Demo. This file contains
a very simple Visual Basic program that demonstrates
how to print bar codes directly to a printer by calling
the TAL Bar Code DLLs.
Intermediate
Visual Basic Demo. This file contains an
intermediate level Visual Basic program that demonstrates
simple label printing and DLL calling conventions.
Visual
Basic Bar Code Class Demo. This file contains a
sample VB class module that wraps up the functionality
of the linear TAL Bar Code DLLs in a Visual Basic Class.
This code sample also contains an example routine that
shows how to convert the metafiles produced by the
TAL Bar Code DLLs to a Picture object that is compatible
with a VB PictureBox or the VB PaintPicture method.

a Word Document containing information on the PowerBuilder
DLL calling conventions.
Access
97 DLL Demo. This example demonstrates how to call
the TAL Bar Code DLLs from MS Access 97. This sample
database shows how to create bar codes and generate
reports and labels. Note: This file only contains a
demo of the Code 39 DLL. If you would like to use this
database with any of the other DLLs you will need to
purchase the commercial release of the DLLs.
