Can someone please help me on this or at least show me the link on how to get started?
I am thinking of going paperless with check in and check out through excel + barcode scanner. So right now I have a master list of all the cases we have in the office.
My idea is to first type in their name which will become Value X(Andrew), then they will scan the barcode (located on the folder) Excel will search in column A and determine that the scanned barcode matches with the barcode located in A2(example), Excel will then change the cell F2 value to the name of the person.
[From the understanding, whenever you have excel sheet open. and whenever you scan the barcode, excel will enter it as if you typed the set of numbers yourself].
