GenerateMultipleBarcodes.vbs

      ' HOW TO USE: save this file as "GenerateMultipleBarcodes.vbs'
' change parameters below to your parameters required
' the script wlil generate barcodes into the same folder
' output images are named using encoded value, for example: 100.png represents barcode with encoded value "100"
' TO RUN: install BarCode SDK and in Windows Explorer double-click on "MultipleBarcodes.vbs"
