Barcode Generator TBarCode OCX
The TEC-IT product TBarCode OCX is a reusable software component for generating arbitrary linear or 2D-barcodes. It conforms to Microsoft’s® ActiveX® specification and can therefore be embedded in numerous applications, development environments or server-based web-applications.
Thin Client Applications
Using such software components in web-applications on server-side has become a popular method because there is no need to install software on the client-side. The preinstalled web-browser is the only piece of software used on the client system for all interactions.
Online Taxes Inc. trusted in TEC-IT’s TBarCode OCX because of the capabilities to be used server-side as well as the complete barcode support offered by the product.
