Use OCX in FAST Report

Hello,
I need to print a report of Fast Report a two-dimensional bar code PDF417.
To do this you must use a third-party OCX.
Someone has already had to do something like that?
If you know how?

Thanks

    add psfastreport unit to your uses clause of your delphi form and you will find psoft barcode control available in the designer.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I added psfastreport in the clause.
    But when i put a "Barcode object" in fastReport, I don't have the possiility to choose PDF417 in "Type of Bar"

    if you used the psbarcode object and dropped it on the design page you should see the pdf
    tab in the upper left of the psoft editor.

    Sorry,
    I'm a beginner programmer.
    I don't understand all the steps I have to do.
    I will explain my problem.
    Normally, I use FastReport to draw and print labels.
    To draw a label, I double click on the component frxreport1.
    Next, I use a component of FastReport: the component "barcode object".
    On the object inspector of barCode1, I put "bcCode39" at the lign "BarType" and a number at the lign "expression".
    Finally I use the print commande ("frxreport1.print") in my form code.

    So now, I have do the same but with an other barCode's type.
    I want to draw and print a 2d barCode type label on fastReport.
    This 2d BarCode type is "PDF417" and it is not possible to select it at the BarType lign.
    So,
    It is possible to do that in FastReport?
    Do you know how to do?
    Thanks for all

    put a psoft barcode object you will find it at the bottom of the objects tool bar on the far right of your design window.

    there is also a demo in the binaries news group works in fr3 or 4.

    I have read the manual [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> And now I'm able to print A PDF417 barCode. With Psoft, I save a PDF417 barCode in a file. And with fastReport, I use a OLE object to add this file. It is the correct process?[/img]

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
