Printing Inputted Date As A Barcode

I have a label that needs to have a date on it. The date needs to be input by the user. I have setup the prompt such that the user inputs "05/15/2012". This displays as text. Then I have added a barcode to the label which uses as its data source the object name for the date field.

When the barcode is scanned, i get "05/O15/O2012". It seems the / is being replaced with "/O" in the barcode.

How do I keep this from happening?

Thanks.

  You are using Code 39 - Full Ascii. Switch your barcode to Code 39 - Regular.
