In this post we are going to explore how we can generate multi column barcode using rdlc reporting tool. Let’s get started…

Content

• Install NuGet Package(BarcodeLib)
• Enable RDLC Reporting in Visual Studio 2019
• Design RDLC Report for Barcode
• Generate Barcode

Install NuGet Package

Install-Package BarcodeLib -Version 2.3.0

Enable RDLC Reporting in Visual Studio 2019

Enable RDLC Reporting in Visual Studio 2017

Design RDLC Report for Barcode

Next lets set column property

Generate Barcode

Prepare data to show barcode in RDLC by generating barcode image, also it is saving generated file to local folder as .png.

//Encode
Image img = barcode.Encode(BarcodeLib.TYPE.CODE128, sitem.detailsid, Color.Black, Color.Transparent, 635, 105);
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
    img.Save(ms, ImageFormat.Png);
    _objData.Add(new vmProductDetails
    {
        detailsid = sitem.detailsid,
        sizename = sitem.sizename,
        offerprice = sitem.offerprice,
        codeimage = ms.ToArray()
    });

    //Save Generated Image
    string tempfolder = @"C:\barcode\";
    if (!Directory.Exists(tempfolder))
        Directory.CreateDirectory(tempfolder);
    string filepath = tempfolder + sitem.detailsid + ".png";
    img.Save(filepath, ImageFormat.Png);

    //Display Generated Image
    barcodeImagePanel.BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.Center;
    var _img = resizeImage(img, new Size(235, 39));
    barcodeImagePanel.BackgroundImage = _img;
}

Finally build and run the application, click generate button to get below generated barcode print layout.

Hope this’ll help 🙂
