ASCII character can be inserted into a barcode through the use of a Formula. The following Conversion Function can be used in a Formula Expression to insert ASCII characters:

char («integer») gives the character corresponding to the integer argument in the ASCII table.
 

Example:
char(65) = "A"

To add the ASCII character A manually through the use of a formula:

1. Click Data Sources select Formula then choose Add.

2. Give the formula a name

For this example, we'll leave the name of the formula as Formula0.

3. In the empty expression text box, type char(65).

In the lower portion of the Formula window, there will be a preview of the formula return, displaying the letter 'A'.

4. Click OK.

A formula variable with the name Formula0 has now been created which will result in the value A which has a numeric ASCII code of 65.  This formula can be used to populate fields placed on the label design.
