Classic ASP Requires Chilkat v11.7.0+

Generate a QR Code with the Barcode Method

See more QR Code Examples

Demonstrates the Barcode method, which is the general form of QrCode: the request names the symbology, and everything else is the same. QrCode is Barcode with the symbology already set to qr, and identical requests to the two methods give identical results. A program that will produce more than one kind of barcode can use Barcode for all of them. Classic ASP
