Description
Returns or sets a value that determines whether to display the start and stop characters in the human readable text in all Code39 barcodes produced by Barcode ActiveX.
Syntax
object.Code39StartStopChars[= Boolean]
Remarks
For historical reasons many code39 symbols print
start/stop characters (asterisks) at the beginning
and the end of the human readable text. While the start and
stop characters are always present in the barcode, it is
not necessary for them to appear in the human readable.
When the Code39StartStopChars property is set to TRUE, the
asterisks are displayed at both the beginning and end of
the human readable.
This property affects the three Code 39 symbologies - Code 39, HIBC and Code39 Full ASCII.
Note
The asterisks are not part of the encoded data; and you should not include asterisks in Message property when creating code 39 barcodes.
