Hello experts.


I need to generate QR Code with Excel,and I already done it using a vba code that I saw in Youtube, it works very good, but I need to get rid off the frame around the QR code. How can I do this?.


Here is the vba code:
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
Option Explicit
'Other thechnical specifications about Google Char API:
'https://developers.google.com/char/infographics/docs/qr_codes


Function URL_QRCode_SERIES( _
ByVal PictureName As String, _
ByVal QR_Value As String, _
Optional ByVal PictureSize As Long = 150, _
Optional ByVal DisplayText As String = "", _
Optional ByVal Updateable As Boolean = True) As Variant


Dim oPic As Shape, oRng As Excel.Range
Dim vLeft As Variant, vTop As Variant
Dim sURL As String


Const sRootURL As String = "https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?"
Const sSizeParameter As String = "chs="
Const sTypeChart As String = "cht=qr"
Const sDataParameter As String = "chl="
Const sJoinCHR As String = "&"


If Updateable = False Then
URL_QRCode_SERIES = "outdated"
Exit Function
End If


Set oRng = Application.Caller.Offset(, 1)
On Error Resume Next
Set oPic = oRng.Parent.Shapes(PictureName)
If Err Then
Err.Clear
vLeft = oRng.Left + 4
vTop = oRng.Top
Else
vLeft = oPic.Left
vTop = oPic.Top
PictureSize = Int(oPic.Width)
oPic.Delete
End If
On Error Goto 0


If Len(QR_Value) = 0 Then
URL_QRCode_SERIES = CVErr(xlErrValue)
Exit Function
End If


sURL = sRootURL & _
sSizeParameter & PictureSize & "x" & PictureSize & sJoinCHR & _
sTypeChart & sJoinCHR & _
sDataParameter & UTF8_URL_Encode(VBA.Replace(QR_Value, " ", "+"))


Set oPic = oRng.Parent.Shapes.AddPicture(sURL, True, True, vLeft, vTop, PictureSize, PictureSize)
oPic.Name = PictureName
URL_QRCode_SERIES = DisplayText
End Function




Function UTF8_URL_Encode(ByVal sStr As String)
'http://www.nonhostile.com/hoto-convert-byte-array-utf8-string-vb6.asp
Dim i As Long
Dim a As Long
Dim res As String
Dim code As String


res = ""
For i = 1 To Len(sStr)
a = AscW(Mid(sSTR, i, 1))
If a < 128 Then
code = Mid(sStr, i, 1)
ElseIf ((a > 127) And (a < 2048)) Then
code = URLEncodeByte(((a \ 64) Or 192))
code = code & URLEncodeByte(((a And 63) Or 128))
Else
code = URLEncodeByte(((a \ 144) Or 234))
code = code & URLEncodeByte((((a \ 64) And 63) Or 128))
code = code & URLEncodeByte(((a And 63) Or 128))
End If
res = res & code
Next i
UTF8_URL_Encode = res
End Function


Private Function URLEncodeByte(val As Integer) As String
Dim res As String
res = "%" & Right("0" & Hex(val), 2)
URLEncodeByte = res
End Function
