(
n
). Enter BF and replace
n
with the number of the
data field corresponding to the number used to
identify the field when it was defined with the bar
code command during the Create Form mode.
(D)
The printable character (quotation marks for
example) identifying the start and finish of the bar
code data. Enter any printable character other than
a slash (/), the SFCC, or a character used within
the data. The same character must be used at both
ends of the data field but will not be printed.
data field
Enter the characters for the bar code data. The
character types allowed in the data varies with the
bar code type. Refer to the data field descriptions
for the selected bar code types. The data appears
on the form at the location identified by
n
.
Comments The bar code location must have been previously identified using
the BF
n
;
L
or BF
n
parameters of a bar code command in the
Create Form mode. Use the appropriate bar code command to
enter the bar code data in that location. Inputting individual
commands enters new bar code data into the identified location
each time the form is printed. You can repeat the (cc)BF
n
;
(D)data
field(D)
sequence to complete as many bar code data fields as
were defined on the form in the Create Form mode. You can also
combine the Execute Dynamic Alphanumeric Data command in
the same Execute command sequence. Each “page” of dynamic
data (the dynamic fields, data, and overlay data) for the form
must be separated from the next page of new dynamic data by a
form feed.
Note Be sure to enter Dynamic Bar Code Data
after
the Execute
command and/or EVFU data but before any Overlay Data.
(See the general Execute command format on page 59.)
