Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help.

I have list of items, each of which has a barcode value. I want these barcodes to dsiplay in the last column.

Unfortunately, add-in's aren't usable as the spreadsheet needs to be used by a number of users.

I have previously used google sheets, where you can reference a URL Image and have it dsiplay using the Image function. Unfortunately, the print resolution on google sheets is too low for the bar codes to be usable.

Is there a way to do the same in excel? If it has to be done via macro / vba, then so be it.

I cannot find a way to have an image display from a URL. Example URL is

"http://www.barcodesinc.com/generator/image.php?code=356439297563726&style=197&type=C128B&width=200&height=50&xres=1&font=3"

The section in bold is where I will use the contents of cell A3, A4 etc etc.

Any help would be appreciated. The problem is doing my head in!

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
