Form Examples and Exercises 6–28
Adding a Bar Code
11. Change the form definition by adding bar code type Code 39 (C39), one
of the codes available on the IGP/PGL. First, reopen the file. Bar codes
are defined in the Create Form mode; therefore, the Bar Code command
must be entered before the End command line. In the Bar Code
command, specify type C39 and 0.8 inch height (Hn). Use a dynamic
bar code data field (BF) identified by the number (n) 1 with a length (L)
of 5. The actual data will be provided dynamically in the Execute Form
mode. Specify the starting row (SR) 35.7 and starting column (SC) 39,
and stop the command.
Enter

12. To dynamically input alphanumeric data fields, first identify the
locations for the data in the Create Form mode as part of the form
definition. Enter the locations in the existing Alpha command sequence
(or use a new Alpha command). In the Alpha command sequence, enter
the alphanumeric field (AF), the field number (n), length (L), starting
row (SR) and column (SC), and any vertical (VE) or horizontal (HE)
expansion. To enter this alphanumeric data in the existing Alpha
command sequence, the data must be entered before the existing Alpha
command STOP line.
Enter
AF1;7;38.7;19.3;3;3
AF2;11;43;20;2;2
AF3;31;47.3;20;2;1
