Bar_Code into Crystal Reports Programatically

[Wango]

I am about to emabark on a project whereby I use4 Crystal Reports to get ingormation out of the database.
I then use some of the info in the database (say, a social security number) to create a bar-code.
I am then supposed to run a scheduler which will create teh reports - this measns that I will not create the bar-code manually..

The question is, is it possible to change (programatically) change the font of text field (say a social security number) into a bar-code font?
If so how? Can I do it without introducing V/Basic into the mix??

you can use a formula to create the barcode while printing the report then appy to the formula field the font for barcode (at design time). You can do it with Crystal Report.
