Without knowing exactly what error you get, here's the code I use to create barcodes with Barcode...
<x-tad-bigger>make</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcode</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>with properties</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger> {</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodeType</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>, </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodeMag</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>, </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodeTrunc</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>, </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodeBWR</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>, </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodeNumber</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>, </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>options</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>:"", </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>0 0 0 100</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>", </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>eps</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>", </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>barcodePath</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>}
Note: also specify 'saveto'. I've never had a problem with creating barcodes.
Where do you get the error?

<x-tad-smaller>Hi All,</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>I have a filemaker db which generates barcodes using applescript the code is as follows:</x-tad-smaller>
tell application "FileMaker 6"
activate
set nik to cell "SKU 9 digit" of current record
end tell
tell application "Barcode"
activate
make barcode with properties {type:"ISBN-OCRB", Size:"100", height:"26", bwr:"0", data:nik, colour:"0 0 0 100", saved:"text"} ¬
end tell
<x-tad-smaller>This works fine on OS9 but not always on OSX - can anyone see anything obvious that will make it fail on OSX???</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>???? Its probably a casting issue thats needs something like "as text" or something on the end of a line. (I dont know as I have little to no experience with AS but these things have cropped up in the past when migrating filemaker dbs to OSX from OS9)</x-tad-smaller>
