code 128 generation in C#

[BridgeTurner]

Hi all, I have a problem to generate barcode by using the code from: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/GDI-plus/GenCode128.aspx The barcode could not encode special characters. What am I doing wrong?

[AbelJones]

There's nothing wrong in your hand. The generator itself does not encode punctuation symbols. You should try another one.

I am afraid to say what you are using is a poor barcode generation, you may change one with well-tested barcode library.

Hi, though I do not know which barcode control you use to generate the code 128. But you may have a try to enable the tilde function.

It generates alphanumeric codes of variable length, and spaces are included with the character assists in checking the barcode.

According to ISO/IEC barcode specification, Code 128 only encode ASCII 128 characters. So, you may firstly make sure your encoded barcode data is correct. Besides, some googled C# barcode library can use process tilde character to encode other ASCII character in Code 128 barcode.

if there is something wrong with your barcode generator , you can change for another and have a try. i have used this barcode generator for times and i don't know whether it can generate code 128, you can just have a check , good luck!

I quite agree with you. I used that tool before.
