Can I print barcodes using Excel?

[Guest]

I would like to convert a number in an Excel cell to barcode and print it in
spreadsheet form. Are there add-ins or 3rd party software available to do
this?

The easiest way to print a bar code in an Excel spreadsheet would be
to use a bar code ActiveX control.
The best one on the market is available from TAL Technologies. You can
get more information and download a demo from the following URL:

The demo version of the TAL Bar Code ActiveX control comes complete
with a sample Excel spreadsheet that demonstrates how to use it in
Excel.

Not at all. You just need barcode fonts, and then print as normal.
