Hi, the objective of my project was to generate labels from an excel file which will be downloaded from ERP software. With the help of mr excel i was able to do everything that I wanted to and even generate the labels. Now the final nail in the coffin is that the cell G which contains the barcode is not displaying as barcode but in the same font as all the other values. Is there any way that can make sure that the objective can be achieved by printing the labels with the barcode
If the fonts in the same cell cannot be different we could also try to divide the cells and print barcode into that. Column G contains the barcode. TIA

Code:
Sub AveryLabels4014()

''''    Print onto Avery Compatible 4014 labels (1 7/16" x 4")
''''    Caveat:  You may need to adjust row height/column width and/or margins to fit your labels

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Dim LastRow As Long, i As Long, j As Long, NoCols As Long

Dim Filtur As String
Dim prtArea As Range


Set ws1 = ActiveSheet
Set ws2 = Sheets.Add(after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count))
LastRow = ws1.Cells(Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
Filtur = InputBox("Please Enter Filter Criterion")

Hi PG
this is exactly what I wanted. The test works as well. I tried to imitate the test code in my code but there is something that I am missing. Can you have a look ? It is not showing any error just that the font is not changing
Code:
''''    Concatenate data to Column A
LastRow = ws2.Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
With ws2
    For i = 1 To LastRow
        .Cells(i, 1) = .Cells(i, 2) & vbCrLf & .Cells(i, 3) & vbCrLf & _
                       .Cells(i, 4) & vbCrLf & .Cells(i, 5) & .Cells(i, 6)
                              
        .Cells(i, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value
        length = Len(.Cells(i, 1).Value)
        
        .Cells(i, 1) = Cells(i, 1) & vbCrLf & .Cells(i, 7)
        .Cells(i, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value
                
        With .Cells(i, 1).Characters(length + 1).Font
                .Name = "Arial"
                .Size = 30
        End With


        
Next i
    'Columns("B:G").Delete
    
End With

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Hi

This works for me.

I wrote some data in Sheet2!A1:G10. The code concatenates all to column A.

I used your code, just adjusted the range.

Please try


Code:
'    Concatenate data from A1:G10 to A1:A10
Sub Test()
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Dim lLength As Long, lLastRow As Long, i As Long

Set ws2 = Worksheets("Sheet2")

lLastRow = 10
With ws2
    For i = 1 To lLastRow
        .Cells(i, 1) = .Cells(i, 2) & vbLf & .Cells(i, 3) & vbLf & _
                       .Cells(i, 4) & vbLf & .Cells(i, 5) & .Cells(i, 6)
                              
        lLength = Len(.Cells(i, 1).Value)
        
        .Cells(i, 1) = Cells(i, 1) & vbLf & .Cells(i, 7)
                
        With .Cells(i, 1).Characters(lLength + 1).Font
                .Name = "Arial"
                .Size = 30
        End With

Next i
Columns("B:G").Clear

End With
End Sub
