Add barcodes to Oracle Reports with this library. The barcode library is a PLL file that formats data from fields in the report to barcode fonts. It works cross-platform on Windows and UNIX. Code 128 (sets A, B and C), Postnet, Planet, Interleaved 2 of 5, ITF, UPC-A, EAN-13 and EAN-8 are supported. Our bar-code library is free if you use it with one of our barcode fonts.

2 stars (Skip steps in examples, difficult to follow) - The examples in book are difficult to follow. Many intermediate steps were skipped. I am frustrated, trying to follow examples in the book and do not get the results shown on screenshots. I end up searching Google for answers, which I found all of them. If you plan to pay for this book, my recommendation is getting a copy of table of contents and then searching in Google for the contents. The book should mention (or at least refer to) the setup that makes Crystal Reports .NET work, e.g. where & how to set up IIS, virtual directory, etc. E.g., I can't get the screenshot shown in Figure 5-4 because I do not have the required virtual directory setup. Or, I can't get the screenshot in Figure 10-4 (still looking for answer as of writing). 1 stars (Look for another book) - I found quite a few mistakes. Does anyone review these books?

Many other reviewers thought the book was really good. Hm...it has some interesting ideas for additional, future work I would like to do, but ... 1. I found it to be rather disorganized. He jumps around a lot in the book, and sometimes it is hard to follow his examples. He tries to do two things at the same time: explain the different options in Crystal Reports and go through a detailed example (which doesn't cover all of the options). 2. I got off to a bad start in the book right away because he gives the .NET project the same name as the report, which confuses my version of Visual Studio .NET (2003 EA). In the sample code that can be downloaded from Wro'xs web site, he uses a different name for the .NET project. 3. His explanation of cross tab reports is a joke (and has some mistakes in it). Fortunately, he uses a good example(s) for the cross tab report(s) and a reasonably intelli...
