Hi All,

I have a barcode scanner which I use to scan information directly into cells and it works great.
I have created a Userform with a Textbook but when I try to scan some barcodes with the same barcode scanner into the textbox nothing happens. Do I have to change some properties of the textbook?

Thank you,

David
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Hello dktx2016,

For this to work, the UserForm must be shown non-modally. I have 2 macros here. One will show the UserForm non-modally and the second will fill the TextBox on the UserForm with the ActiveCell.
You will need to change the name of the UserForm and TextBox in the code to match your own.

Module Macro
This will display the UserForm non-Modally.
Code:
Sub ShowForm()
    ' // Change the UserForm's name to match yours.
    UserForm1.Show False
End Sub

Worksheet Event Macro
Add this macro to the Worksheet where the data will be entered.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    
        If UserForms.Count Then
            With UserForms(0)
                .Hide
                ' // Change the name o the TextBox to match yours.
                .TextBox1.Value = Target.Text
                .Show False
            End With
        End If
        
End Sub

I repeat my question.
Can you post the code you use that places the scan result in the worksheet cell?
