Printing Barcodes using Dynamics GP

Looks like David Musgrave hacked into my laptop and saw my draft article about Barcode Printing using Dynamics GP!

A couple of weeks ago I got a request to print barcodes from Dynamics GP, I wanted to publish my experience but couldn’t due to the workload I currently have! However, I did this using one of the below sources:
