I need to add a check digit to the end of a numeric short keyline using the MOD-10 calculation routine. Can this be done in Excel?

Thank you so much!

Hi PGC

I have followed your guidance above here to install the module and I can see how it works. Please would you be able to help with with changing the calculation and weighting so that it will work for my scenario? I am unsure how to change your code to fit:

Example code:
AAA0708501

Alpha Numeric Conversion
A – 1 K – 1 U – 1
B – 2 L – 2 V – 2
C – 3 M – 3 W – 3
D – 4 N – 4 X – 4
E – 5 O – 5 Y – 5
F – 6 P – 6 Z – 6
G – 7 Q – 7
H – 8 R – 8
I – 9 S – 9
J – 0 T – 0

AAA0708501 becomes 1110708501

Odd characters are weighted by 1, even digits
are weighted by 3
1 1 1 0 7 0 8 5 0 1
1 3 1 3 1 3 1 3 1 3 (weighting number)

digit is multiplied by its weighting
(1 x 1) (1 x 3) (1 x 1) (0 x 3) (7 x 1) (0 x 3) (8 x 1) (5 x 3) (0 x 1) (1 x 3)
= 1 3 1 0 7 0 8 15 0 3

1+3+1+0+7+0+8+15+0+3 = 38
38 % 10 = 8
10 - 8 = 2

2 is the check digit

AAA0708501(2)


Many thanks in advance for your help
