  You need to specify a name for the data source in your BarTender document so that you may reference it to set/get from your external application.  See the BarTender Help system for a full reference on how to integrate with BarTender using the .NET component.

   

  Here is an example:

   

  'This is how you would GET a value of a named data source.
  Engine btEngine = new Engine(); 
  LabelFormatDocument btFormat = btEngine.Documents.Open(@"C:\MyLabel.btw");
  string AddressSubstring = btFormat.SubStrings["Address"].Value;
  
  'By contrast, this is how you would set values in a document's data source.
  Engine btEngine = new Engine(); 
  LabelFormatDocument btFormat = btEngine.Documents.Open(@"c:\MyLabel.btw");
  btFormat.SubStrings["Address"].Value = "1313 Mockingbird Lane, Anywhere, USA"; 
  btFormat.SubStrings["Name"].Value = "John Doe"; 
  btFormat.SubStrings["Quantity"].Value = "10";
