eg: the first half of the label should show the item number , quantity ,and other imp details with barcodes..the second half should show the picture of item.(eg: jpg or xls file etc)

Can anyone help me pls

In order for anyone to even hint at the response, one would have to have a clue what type of printer, but one solution might be PDF Include http://www.oehive.org/pdfinclude I think I have read of people including barcodes in these with the right fonts.

Xprint give you possibility of mixing text, barcodes, images...
It also give you the possibility to export to PDF, Excel, JPG, GIF...
Supported by all laserjets/inkjets all in Full color.
this using simple tags like <BARCODE...> <PDF> <IMG> ... etc etc
You can preview the output or directly send it to printer <PREVIEW> / <PRINTER....>
As you can see really simple syntax.
@ www.4gl.fr you can download it... actually if you dont print more than 2 pages you dont even need to purchase a license... only when you print more than 1 page without license the 2nd page becomes marked with funny squares and such....
Easy to use, easy syntax, nice output...

PS i am not working for the XPrint comunity, i am just a satisfied (licensed) user

One solution is to generated the barcode details in .txt format from an Application interface (developed in Progress 4GL) . Any standard barcode printing software e.g LabelWorks can do the rest. LabelWorks has excellent interfacing with barcode printers. e.g. Z4M Plus.
