Create RDLC Report Project in Visual Studio

1. Start Visual Studio and create Windows Application project with name "RDLCBarcodeDemo".
2. Create a new DataSet and entitle it as "AdventureWorks.xsd".
3. Swith to "Pointer" and display the toolbox, and then drag and drop "TableAdapter" to your created DataSet.
4. Create a connection to the AdventureWorks SQL Server Database sample and click Next. Then Choose "Use SQL statements" and click Next.
5. Enter the following SQL Statement "SELECT ProductID, Name FROM Production.vProductAndDescription WHERE (CultureID = N'en')" and click Finish button.

Create Barcode Images in RDLC Report Project

1. Add a new custom column in the DataTable name it "Barcode". Move to the Properties panel and change data type of "Barcode" column to "System.Byte[]" by manually typing it. Then save the "AdventureWorks.xsd".
2. Create a new report and name it "Report1.rdlc".
3. Drag and drop a Table from the "Report Items" to report and add 3 columns in DataSet "AdventureWorks.xsd" to the report table.
4. Drag and drop an Image item to the "Barcode" column and setting the properties of image: Set "MIMEType" to "image/jpeg" , "Source" to "Database" and "Value" to "=Fields!Barcode.Value" . Then save the report.
5. Open the Windows Forms and insert Report Viewer control on the form then choose your created report "Report1.rdlc"
6. Copy the VB or C# .NET sample code below into the method Form1_Load, and then run the Windows application.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// load data to the data table this.vProductAndDescriptionTableAdapter.Fill
(this.AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescription);
// create a linear barcode object
Linear barcode = new Linear();
// set barcode type 
barcode.LinearBarcode = LinearBarcode.Code128;
// draw barcodes for each data row
foreach (AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescriptionRow 
row in this.AdventureWorks.vProductAndDescription.Rows)
{// set barcode encoding data value
barcode.Data = row.ProductID.ToString();
// set drawing barcode image format
barcode.Format = System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg;
row.Barcode = barcode.drawBarcodeAsBytes();
}
this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport();
}

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender 
As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'TODO: This line of code

You can move, or remove it, as needed.
