Access Generator field displays Text instead of Barcode

I purchased and installed the Native Access QR Code Generator today. I followed all instructions, the but field that should display the QR Code displays only the text to be encoded. I have enabled macros per your instructions, and am not getting any compile errors from the VBA code.

Operating System: WIndows 11

Application: Access (Office 365)

This issue was resolved by placing code into the "On Format" event instead of the "On Print" event. The user manual tutorial shows pasting the report code into the "On Print" event. However, pasting the same code into the "On Format" event of the detail section works better in certain situations. The Native Generator for Access Tutorial has been updated to show the code placed into Detail_Format instead of Detail_Print.

Hello - and thank you for your response. The online tutorial shows pasting the report code into the "On Print" event. However, the video tutorial shows pasting the same code into the "On Format" event of the detail section. When I followed the 2nd method, it finally worked. Not sure why the difference is there and still don't know why the print event wouldn't have worked, but glad to have something working now.
