So I found this code that creates barcodes as an object, problem is the barcode that is created always ends up to the right side of the formula.
I've tried to change the X and Y variables, but can't really find a way so that it always posts it below the cell not to the right side of the cell.


Also it seams to have a bug in the code. If I sometimes update a table in any workbook, it can automaticly create barcodes across different sheets and workbooks. Any help to what is all about would also be helpful.

Code:
Option Explicit




Public Function BarCode_Function(Input_Cell As Range)
    '------------------< BarCode_Function() >------------------
    '< get Input >
    Dim wert As String
    wert = Input_Cell.Formula
    Dim CellID As String
    CellID = "BarCode_" & Input_Cell.Column & "_" & Input_Cell.Row
    
    Dim x As Integer, Y As Integer, Heigth As Integer
    x = Input_Cell.Left + Input_Cell.Width + 2
    
    Y = Input_Cell.Top + 2
    Heigth = Input_Cell.Height - 4
    '<!-- get Input -->
    
    '< create Barcode 39 >
    paintCode39 wert, ActiveSheet, "Barcode_" & CellID, 1, x, Y, Heigth
    '<!-- create Barcode 39 -->
    
    On Error Resume Next
    delete_Shape_Clones
    
    
    '< Ausgabe >
    BarCode_Function = ""
    '<!-- Ausgabe -->
    '------------------<!-- BarCode_Function() -->------------------
End Function

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
If input cell is B2 and you want barcode in B3,

I think you should use

Code:
[LEFT][COLOR=#333333][FONT=monospace]    x = Input_Cell.Left + 2
    
    Y = Input_Cell.Top + [COLOR=#333333][FONT=monospace]Input_Cell.Height [/FONT][/COLOR]+ 2
 [/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT]
