After you have defined an input field as a Barcode in the Field Type tab, the options displayed in the Data Capture tab will depend on what you select from the "Data for this field will come from" menu in the Field Type tab. However, the options are the same (and function the same way) as we covered for a field type of: Text.

Please refer to the chapter that discusses Data Capture for Text Fields for details on how to complete the prompts for Barcodes in this area.
