	<p><em>Sub Main()<br>
		' Create new barcode<br>
		Dim barcode As New Barcode()</em></p>
	<p><em>' Set <span data-scayt_word="symbology" data-scaytid="16">symbology</span><br>
		barcode.Symbology = SymbologyType.Code128<br>
		' Set value<br>
		barcode.Value = "DATA"</em></p>
	<p><em>' Save barcode to image<br>
		barcode.SaveImage("result.png")</em></p>
	<p><em>' Show image in default image viewer<br>
		Process.Start("result.png")<br>
		End Sub</em></p>
	<p><em>End Module</em></p>
