I have visited those links. But i want it to be automated  and i want to add a text style (barcode) dynamically. I am very new to programming , so iam looking for a piece of code which can achieve this.

Just write a text (alphanumeric code) using a predefined style (with a barcode TTF font), or use the CHANGE command on an existing plain text entity.
