3.6.8 String Builder
To add more than one data source to the barcode, use the String Builder. Substrings concatenate, or
join, different values to build what appears to be a single text or barcode object on the label from
multiple data sources. This option can be used for the following:
1. To customize, or build, the caption of a barcode by combining two or more data sources (static
plus date/time, for example).
2. To compress two or more text or barcode values of different lengths from an external data
source.
3. To compress multi-line text values to remove blank lines.
For example, if you want your barcode to have a serialized number followed by a space, you would use
the String Builder to accomplish this.

sources in your barcode.
Steps to Create Substrings Using String Builder
1. With the text box or barcode object selected, click the String Builder
button on the Properties Box > Data Source Tab. The String
Builder screen appears. Note that the String Builder screen is
different for barcodes and text boxes.
