Print and scan the barcode(s) to verify the correct data is encoded.If unsure of the point size, IDAutomation recommends 12 points. This is a very important step if this is not done, barcodes will not be displayed. Change the font of the formula field to the IDAutomation Universalįont and set the point size.To send the data to another column, simply enter To ("B" & i) ensures that the encoded data is sent from the script directly toĬolumn B. Spreadsheet now contains encoded data in cells B1 through B3 on Save the changes, then compile and run the script.Set value of cell EncodedCell to encoded_data In this example, the encoded data will be in Column "B". Set EncodedCell to ("B" & i) - This is where to designate where the encoded data is to appear. Set encoded_data to IDAutomation_Uni_C128b(input_data) of me Set InputCell to the value of (cell i of range ("A1:A" & i)) - This line defines the range, where in this example it is set A1:A3 and i is the counter and will continue to loop until EndofRow.

Repeat with i from 1 to EndofRow - This loop will run from row 1 until EndofRow set above. Set EndofRow to 3 - This defines the last Excel Row with data it this example, it is A3. Run handler showing communication with Excel on run

When using a different spreadsheet, the code will need to be modified to match the column and row set up. NOTE: AppleScript_Excel_Example.xls is a working example using the following code. Make sure that only one Excel worksheet is running. If the sample script file is being used, the code has already been placed in the script. Paste the code below into the AppleScript file.Open the AppleScript Editor and spreadsheet that will be used.However, a few people on Mac are reporting an issue that I cannot reproduce on any of the Mac’s I have access to. It's a separate application but you can only use it with Excel. I released the first version of the file publicly back in November, and for most people, it is working fine. Visual Basic Editor is a code editor for VBA. In theĮxample rows 1 through 3 of Column A already contain data. I’ve created a Macro-Enabled Excel workbook for using on Excel for Mac & Windows.
