Or we should use HMG_LEN() function instead of len()
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

For me too; '9638507" and '9638507 " too.

   cCode := alltrim( cCode ) // line 124

This is the second version.

1. Added an option to show/hide the digits in the barcode.
2. Separated ean8 encoding code into a separate prg so that it can be added to any project and called with a function. Or we can create a library. (If Marek makes his code into a library for EAN-13 like this it will be great.)
3. Added Esgici's suggestion.
4. Made the default line width to 2 and line height to 110 for making the barcode visible and sizable.

Hi Rathi

After "Invalid Code" and "Invalid check sum", createbarcode() function open last produced barcode image (barcode.png).

To avoid this, my humble suggestion is :

When "Invalid Code" or "Invalid check sum" situations occurs, ean8_barcode() functions returns .f., ( line 56 and 74 of ean8.prg )
else return .t. (last line (115) )

and createbarcode() function will be like this :

Code: Select all

function createbarcode
   local cImage := 'barcode.png'
   if ean8_barcode( barcode.code.value, cImage, barcode.linewidth.value, barcode.lineheight.value, barcode.showdigits.value )
      if file( cImage )
         open file cImage
      endif   
   endif
   return nil
Best regards
