I've never used an ActiveX Control and I've gotten this far:

1) Loaded WASP 5.1 Software on to my PC
2) Using menu Tools/Options/Controls have set VFP to see OCX files
3) Created a form and dropped Wasp ActiveX control on form.
4) Added TextBox to form to scan data into.
5) Used a query/view to find another piece of data that I want to print as a barcode to a label.
6) Using a couple of lines of code I've got the Wasp ActiveX control showing the appropriate barcode image on the form based on the scanned input/data lookup.

Now, I want to create a label and have the same bar code image print on the label that I have shown on my form. I thought this would be easy and similar to using the ActiveX control on the form. I thought I'd be able to just drag and drop the ActiveX control onto a label(report) and see the rendered image in the Preview Mode. But, I can't seem to figure out how to get the barcode image onto the label. I've tryed adding an OLE on the report via the Reprot Design menu but this control appears only to read an image file, i.e., bmp, jpeg, gif, etc. Does this mean, I'll have to create a bar code image file using Wasp and then use that image with the label? If so, a few hints on how to do this using the ActiveX control from the form would be appreciated.

As always, thanks in advance ..
Robert
