Entering data into Excel from a check reader / scanner
Does anyone know if you can enter data ento Excel using a MICR from a check
reader / scanner? I'd like to be able to capture all MICR fields on a check in separate cells, add a field for Check Amount to be keyed, and if possible, capture a check image. Do USB connections work as easily with Check Readers as they do, say, with bar code readers? |

Entering data into Excel from a check reader / scanner
hi
as i understand, excel does not have this as a built in feature. so that would depend on your MICR(magnetic ink character reader????) device/software. check your documentaiton of your MIRC reader to see is it can "export" to excel. USB...(universal serial bus) i have heard that USB can handle 100 plus devices and not only handle the data but supply power to the devices. i find that hard to believe but that is suppose to be the spec.... see this site.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus apple has a counterpart...fire wire....different connector but does the same thing. see IEEE1394 or this site.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireWire regards FSt1 "questor" wrote: Does anyone know if you can enter data ento Excel using a MICR from a check reader / scanner?
