I manage a Calibration Lab and we use a barcode system to manage/action items in our logistical information system for calibration. However, there's no built in inventory function for current in shop items
and we often have 1,000+ items in shop. Our system does export to Excel however. What I'm looking to do is use the barcode scanner to not only search out in shop listing, but also action the cell/row when
There is a match for the barcode scanned.

Thanks


EDIT: I would simply just want to highlight the cell/row green to show the item was verified as on hand

Are there any other sheets in your workbook? Did you insert this as a module, or add to the sheet's code?
Only one sheet // added to the sheets code in VBA - Scanning a value into P1 caused the no value found prompt to appear many times before displaying the error

Excel Facts

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney

do you have a carriage return enabled on your scanner? What version of excel are you working with?

I'm unsure if this scanner has a carriage return. I'm usuing Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2301 Build 16.0.16026.20214) 64-bit

I believe I sorted out the issue.

The system that the sheet was exported from had an unremovable first column that I think was causing an issue. I took all of the data and put it in a new untemplated sheet and your solution now works!

I'll mark it as the solution!!

Thank you very much

Happy to help! I'm no expert, so glad it worked out for you!
