how to make the barcode reader trigger a macro in excel.
Hi, Can anyone please give me some information on *how to make the barcode reader trigger a macro in excel*. In other words, after the barcode reader registers a barcode it will execute a macro. Thank you for your time and help. -- CSL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CSL's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25337 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=388168 |

how to make the barcode reader trigger a macro in excel.
You could try using a sheet-level event to trigger the macro: I guess it
depends on how the data is entered by the reader. Eg: if the entry leaves the sheet in "edit" mode then macros will not run in that state. What is the cursor behaviour when you scan a barcode? Does it advance to the next cell after the read? Tim -- Tim Williams Palo Alto, CA "CSL" wrote in message ...

Then you should be abble to use a "change" event procedure in the sheet
module to trigger your code. http://www.cpearson.com/excel/events.htm Tim. -- Tim Williams Palo Alto, CA "CSL" wrote in message ...
