Default Need help with loop


I have a worksheet with several thousand retail items listed wit
Description, Product Barcode, price, etc.

In cell J10, I want to scan in a barcode from a product. any product.

I then want to search the data to find a matching barcode and retur
the description and the price of that item. I have accomplished thi
by using the following formulas:

=VLOOKUP(J10,A2:C24890,2,FALSE) Returns description from column 2
and

=VLOOKUP(J10,A2:C24890,3,FALSE) Returns price from column 3.

Now I need for the cursor to automatically return to J10 so I can sca
in the next product barcode.

The scanner that I am using enters the 10 digit barcode number in th
cell where I have my cursor, then automatically goes to the cell to th
right. How do I set this up to return to the original cell (J10) to ge
ready for the next barcode.

Please help. I know that the answer is probably very obvious - I a
just looking over it
