I have developed a visual basic program to run tests on a workstation in our plant. I have created six labels to be printed after the test. I need the application to send a print command to the bartender and to also indicate the label to be printed.

  You could achieve this via a couple of methods, but would need at least the Automation edition for this to work.

  One option would be to output the data, including label name and printer (if required), into a file and create an Integration in Integration Builder to wait for this file then open BarTender in the background and printer the appropriate label. Alternatively you could possibly control BarTender from within your app via Command Lines (see Command Line Parameters in the Help for BarTender Designer).
