Display barcode as image within Crystal Report

[Dineshgirij]

Hi friends,

I'm having some problem in loading a dynamically generated barcode which is in image format in to a crystal report picture object. I have generated a System.Drawing.Image object with in the Business Logic which I want to display in a picture object within the report.

Since, I dont have much exposure to crystal reports, I'm finding it hard to find a solution for this problem. Please help me guys.
I'm working in VS 2005 and Crystal Report XI Release 2.


Thanks

Dinesh

I am going to do my work with barcode in Crystal Reports for Web Forms Project,but i am not familiar with Web Forms.Do you have any good suggestions?

If possible, i suggest you do not store images of barcodes as images take up a lot of space and bandwidth. Instead, use the free Code 3 of 9 barcode font, and simply store the data you wish to display as a barcode (address, partnumber, etc.). Then retrieve the data from your DB and display it as a barcode by formating the field in CR with the CODE 3 of 9 barcode font.
