The content of a barcode object is set in a dialog. This dialog offers the three options Text, Formula and Variable for the data source.
• The setting Text is used for fixed text/content in the barcode. In addition to the content, the type – e.g. with 2D-Barcodes – and other properties for error correction or encoding can be set.
• With Formula the content can be set by a string which contains the barcode content. The required function is "Barcode”.
• With Variable contents already passed as a barcode can be displayed (see section Data Types).
