    Scanner Inventory Help

    Is it possible to scan a bar code and have the number it represents located in a workbook and have that matching cell be filled with a color upon the scan?

    I have a workbook set up for inventory with the number corresponding between the bar code and the workbook in column B.
    I am currently able to search the workbook and find the cell that matches the bar code number. However, I don't know how to make it auto fill, if that's even possible.

    I will be searching this forum for an answer but wanted to start my own thread as well. Thank you for any help and I am happy to provide any additional information that's needed.

    .
    Presuming when your macro finds the term the scanner was seeking, you have an "Active Cell" that
    holds the term. Then you can use this line :
