Download KA.Barcode for RDLC Reports Term of Evaluation
Users are able to use KA.Barcode for RDLC Reports evaluation for ever without charge. Limitation of Evaluation
Randomly, a "KA Barcode" watermark will appear on generated barcode images. So, users can only apply them to non-commercial applications. Only linear and 2D barcode images created with our suitable license are permitted to be used in business applications. How to Create Barcodes in RDLC Reports for Web Forms
- Create an ASP.NET web form project in Visual Studio and add "KeepAutomation.Barcode.RDLC.dll" to reference.
- In "Solution Explorer", right click your project to add a new "Class" item named "BarcodeDemo".
- Copy the sample code into your created "Class" item. Go to "Build" tab and choose "Build Web Site".
- Switch to "Solution Explorer" and right click your web project to add a new "Report" item.
- Drag a "Table" in "Report Items" under "Toolbox" to the report and go to "Website Data Sources" tab, insert "BarcodeName" and "BarcodeId".
- Now, switch back to "Toolbox", insert "Image" item to the last column and name the column "Barcode".
- Respectively revise "Source" to "Database", "MIMEType" to "image/jpeg", "Value" to "=Fields!Byte.Value" in "Properties" window.
- In "Solution Explorer", right click "Default.aspx" and select "View Designer" to add a "ReportViewer" to the project.
- Choose your created report and run your ASP.NET web project. (Choose "Modify the Web.config file to enable debugging" in the pop-up window and click "OK").

End Class How to Create Barcodes in RDLC Reports for WinForms
- Create a new Windows Forms application in Visual Studio and then create a "DataSet" with the name "AdventureWorks.xsd".
- Move to the "Toolbox", select "Pointer", and drag "TableAdapter" to the new "DataSet".
- Define the connection to SQL Server AdventureWorks Sample Database.
- Insert the following string as SQL Statement: "SELECT ProductID, Name FROM Production.vProductAndDescription WHERE (CultureID = N'en') ".
- Right-click "vProductAndDescription" on the dataset to add a column (name it as "Barcode"), and change the data type to "System.Byte[]" in "Properties" window.
- Switch to "Solution Explorer" and add a new "Report" item.
- Insert a table to the new "Report" item and add three columns in the dataset to the report table details section.
- Drag and drop "Image" item to the last column, named as "Barcode".
- Switch to "Properties" window and change "Source", "MIMEType", "Value" to "Database", "image/jpeg", "=Fields!Barcode.Value" respectively.
- Then select "Form1.cs[Design]" and drag "ReportViewer" to Form1.
- Bind the data collection (Click "Report1.rdlc[Design]", then click "Report" and choose "Data Sources....").
- Add "KeepAutomation.Barcode.RDLC.dll" to project reference.
- Right click "Form1.cs" and select "View Code", then copy the sample code into the method Form1_Load.
- Use "KeepAutomation.Barcode.RDLC" namespace and run your Windows Forms project.
C# Sample code
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// load data to the data table this.vProductAndDescriptionTableAdapter.Fill
this.vProductAndDescriptionTableAdapter.Fill(this.AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescription);
// create a linear barcode object
BarCode barcode = new BarCode();
// set barcode type
barcode.Symbology = KeepAutomation.Barcode.Symbology.Code39;
// draw barcodes for each data row
foreach (AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescriptionRow
row in this.AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescription.Rows)
{// set barcode encoding data value
barcode.CodeToEncode = row.ProductID.ToString();
// set drawing barcode image format
barcode.ImageFormat = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png;
row.Barcode = barcode.generateBarcodeToByteArray();
}
this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport();
} VB Sample code
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
' load data to the data table this.vProductAndDescriptionTableAdapter.Fill
Me.vProductAndDescriptionTableAdapter.Fill(Me.AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescription)
' create a linear barcode object
