Hello,
Im using a barcode scanner to receive data into a form. it takes approximately 1.5 sec to receive the data. After the data is received i would like it to store the Data in a String Variable and move on to the next forum without touching a mouse or keyboard.

My initial thought was to use the Change event in the Text box of were the Data is being initially thrown into(Supper Small Font so user doesn't see the raw data). But the problem is the Barcode scanner throws the data in too slow and the text box detects multiple change events and my data gets jumbled.

Any advice would help.:confused:
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
