Optional parameters for assigning a dynamic bar code
data field location on a form and for designating the

provided during the Execute Form Mode; the data is
not specified during the Create Form Mode. To use this
field, perform the following steps:
a. Enter BF.
b. Replace n with a number ranging from 1 to 255
to identify the bar code field. The SR and SC
parameters specify the exact location of the bar
code field identified by n.

number of characters in the field. The data field
must be numeric and contain exactly 5, 9 or 11
digits.

(Refer to "Execute Form: Dynamic Bar Code

available characters.
