Data Matrix Barcode Generation in Excel


I need to create a list of data elements in both human-readable and Data Matrix format. The data is a list in one of several formats (flat file, CSV, xls, etc.) I want to be able to import the list into an Excel file and run a couple of macros to generate a listing of about 400 items that includes a Data Matrix symbol and the appropriate human-readable information next to it. I am only a single user, I want to be able to repeat this process several times per week for the next 6 months. I'm using Windows 7 OS with Excel 2010. Which product do you recommend?

The IDAutomation Data Matrix Font and encoder for Windows package https://www.idautomation.com/fonts/datamatrix/ consists of a variety of Data Matrix fonts as well as font and graphic encoders that will allow you to generate barcodes. Within this package, the VBA Barcode Macros for Excel may be used for the purposes you are describing. If you are mainly interested in printing barcode labels from the file formats you mentioned, the IDAutomation Barcode Label Software https://www.idautomation.com/labelsoftware/ may be the best choice.
