How to create barcodes in Excel that WORK!

Find out how you can create UPC-A barcodes in Excel. I tested the barcode with a scanner and it works! You can download the Excel file and use it to generate your own barcode or use it to learn Excel (thank you Pete for sharing).

The solution is a good mix of Excel formulas such as the MOD function, Excel Text functions like LEFT, RIGHT & MID functions as well as Conditional formatting and some Excel VBA. The final result, i.e. the Excel barcode is recognized by the barcode scanner.
