BarCod makes bar code display really easy. Just pick the orientation, set the size, and pick the bar code style. Then, set the caption to whatever you want the bars to be.
BarCod uses the Caption property to determine what to display. ForeColor is used for the colour of the Bars. BackColor is used for the colour of the background. If BarCod cannot fit the entire bar code in the control window, it will fill the entire control with the background colour.
Under VB 3.0, BarCod will bind to a data control. It uses the DataField, DataSource, and DataChanged properties.
