How to change number format for Crystal Reports Barcode

I've been creating a barcoded pallet label and need to change the way the weight field is displayed. from 630.12kg to display as 063012 so it can be added to a barcode in Crystal Reports, is there a formula to do this?

Operating System: Windows 11

Application: Crystal Reports

debrac	Best Answer We can offer you this VB code that may accomplish what you need. This conversion could be useful for GS1 AIs 3102 (Net Weight in Kilograms) and 3202 (Net Weight in Pounds). This code is a portion of the ITF function in the Crystal Reports Barcode Generator. The input is DataToEncode and the result is NumberString. Note this code is in Visual Basic syntax and should also work in Microsoft Excel and Access. Dim DataToEncode as String DataToEncode = "Yourdata" Dim StringLength as Number Dim NumberString as String StringLength = Len(DataToEncode) 'Extract only numbers from the text For I = 1 To StringLength If IsNumeric(Mid(DataToEncode, I, 1)) Then NumberString = NumberString & Mid(DataToEncode, I, 1) Next I If Len(NumberString) = 5 Then NumberString = "0" & NumberString If Len(NumberString) = 4 Then NumberString = "00" & NumberString Please note that IDAutomation barcode software can only take the data you enter into it and encode it to either have a custom font applied to complete the barcode or generate an image of a barcode. If this formula does not work for you, IDAutomation would recommend that you review Crystal Reports formulas to complete this. You may have to reach out to SAP if you need assistance writing a Crystal Reports formula to complete this action. IDAutomation does not support Crystal Reports itself, only the barcode software to encode your data. Posted 179 day(s) ago (0) (0) Report Abuse
