VFP Report OLE object ActiveX Control Barcode Size Properties

I have created a VFP report with an OLE object that is 3" wide and 1" high. I am executing code that sets the Control Source and successfully prints a barcode from the ActiveX Barcode Control. However, it is only 1" wide. I cannot seem to find the right commands to get the barcode to fit the size set in the form, nor am I able to adjust the print size via the OBJECT details.

This is for a GS1-128 barcode label for an SSCC barcode:
.OO.Object.DataToEncode = myval
.OO.SymbologyID = 13
.OO.Object.BACKCOLOR = RGB(255,255,255)
.OO.Object.FORECOLOR = RGB(0,0,0)
.OO.object.leftmargincm = 0.3
.OO.Object.barheight = 300
.OO.Object.ShowText = 0

Operating System: Windows Server 2016

Hello Rick,

The properties available for the ActiveX Barcode Control are listed here: ActiveX Barcode Control & DLL User Manual in the section for "Linear Barcode Control Properties" for Code 128 and GS1-128 barcodes. The X Dimension controls the size of the barcode:

I recommend that you try increasing that property to make the barcodes larger.
