Hello Guys,
I just started to play with the Barcode object and I love that it can utilize soo many barcode types but I was trying to find a way to use it in my winforms directly.
For example, I’d like to be able to pass in the barcode type, value, and have it give me a binary stream so I can save it elsewhere or show it in a picture box.
Is there any way to do this *without* creating a report, using a data source and using the report viewer?
I tried just about everything you can think of after following this example http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/programmaticexportingareport.html but it seems to be a bit much just to export/view a barcode.

Hello Chris,
Currently only Telerik Reporting is capable of creating barcodes and we still lack a dedicated Windows Forms control with a similar functionality.
When it comes to Telerik Reporting you are always required to create a report definition which when rendered through the report viewers (Windows Forms or ASP.NET) or programmatically (through Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor.Render methods) generates a document with the report data.
Kind regards,
