barcode in excel

I would think the number just has to be formated with a barcode font. Have you got the barcode font?

However there are many different barcode standards and thus fonts, to name but a few for UCC-12 (UPC-A and UPC-E), EAN-13, EAN-8, ISSN, Bookland and ISBN.

You need to make sure you are using the appropraite font for your needs. You also may need to purchase the font in the first instance.
