Default My idea to import string and graphics to visio

Thanks for respomnging

my idea as I mentioned earlier is to use MS Access as my bar code bank.

String part
I will create a UI in Access VBA to set the string and generate the series with static and random portion, then store the final strings generated in an alphanumeric field.

bar code
I need to install Barcode 128-B font and use it in Access in a new field. Field contents (my string) will be converted into graphic image in png/jpg etc. format.

Then I can connnect this Access database two fields (string and barcode image) into visio objects like text box and inserted image at my specific locations.

Then automating to repeatedly run the visio and get new field contents on each run and save/print the visio drawing.

That's the idea

I am using Visio 2016 professional, but I agree on using VBA coding in both Ms Access and Visio wherever required.

Now give your opinion

Regards
