Message: [QUOTE="Neodynamic, post: 112471, member: 5006"] [b]Technologies used[/b] - Neodynamic Barcode Professional 2.5 for Windows Forms - Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or greater - Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 - Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Express Editions (VB, C#, J#, and C++) In the following step by step guide we're going to create a simple Windows Forms application that accomplishes data binding tasks. In this Windows Forms we'll use [b]Barcode Professional[/b] to bind a data field to it and using Binding Navigator controls as well. We'll use [b]Microsoft's AdventureWorks database sample for SQL Server 2005[/b]. [b]Follow these steps:[/b] - Ensure you have installed [url=http://www.neodynamic.com/Products/BCWinC/BarcodeWinControl.aspx?tabid=23&prodid=3]Barcode Professional for Windows Forms[/url] - Launch [b]Visual Studio[/b] and create a new [b]Windows Forms application[/b] - Go to [b]Data > Add New Data Source[/b] and follow the wizard?s instructions. Select the [b]AdventureWorks[/b] database. When you are asked for a Database object, select [b]vEmployee[/b] (HumanResources) view and the fields shown in the following figure. [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure01Small.jpg[/img] - Open the default Form at design-time and [b]ensure that Barcode Professional is on the Visual Studio Toolbox[/b] as is shown in the following figure: [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure02Small.jpg[/img] - Now, change to the [b]Data Sources Explorer[/b], select [b]vEmployee[/b] and set its view to [b]Details[/b] as is shown in the following figure. [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure03Small.jpg[/img] - We want to represent the [b]EmployeeID[/b] field as a barcode image onto the form. In order to accomplish it, we should "bind" the [b]EmployeeID[/b] field with Barcode Professional. Click on the button on the right of [b]EmployeeID[/b] field and select [b]Customize[/b] from the popup menu as is shown in the following figure. [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure04Small.jpg[/img] - In the [b]Options[/b] dialog box, select [b]BarcodeProfessional[/b] [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure05Small.jpg[/img] - After that, [b]Barcode Professional[/b] is ready to be bound with [b]EmployeeID[/b] field. Click on the button on the right of [b]EmployeeID[/b] field and select [b]BarcodeProfessional[/b]. [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure06.jpg[/img] - Now it's time the designer automatically creates the form layout. Select the [b]vEmployee[/b] item from the [b]Data Sources Explorer[/b] and drag & drop it onto the form. Then, select the barcode control on the form and set an empty string to its [b]Text[/b] property. The form should look like the following. [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure07Small.jpg[/img] - That's it. Run the app. You'll get something like the following: [img]http://www.neodynamic.com/Support/FAQs/34/figure08.jpg[/img] [b]Links:[/b] [url=http://www.neodynamic.com/ND/FaqsTipsTricks.aspx?tabid=66&prodid=3&sid=34]This Demo[/url] [url=http://www.neodynamic.com/Products/Demos/Demos.aspx?tabid=74&prodid=3]More Demos[/url] [url=http://www.neodynamic.com/ND/Downloads.aspx?tabid=44&prodid=3]Download Barcode Professional for Windows Forms[/url] [url=http://www.neodynamic.com/Products/BCWinC/BarcodeWinControl.aspx?tabid=23&prodid=3]More Information about Neodynamic Barcode Professional for Windows Forms[/url] Neodynamic .NET Components & Controls [url=http://www.neodynamic.com]Neodynamic[/url] [url=http://www.barcode-for-net.com]Neodynamic Barcode Professional for .NET Windows Forms[/url] [/QUOTE]
