Is there a software package for creating barcodes and scanning them into an xl spreadsheet?

Is there a software package for creating barcodes and scanning them into an xl spreadsheet?
My group is doing a study where we have a lot of data to collect that will be sorted by multiple test subjects. We are collecting the data in spreadsheets to run through a system that will crunch the numbers for us.

currently we are numbering the items in the test and manually entering the data. I thought it would be much easier and faster if we labeled them with barcodes and were able to simply scan the data into our spreadsheet… Any ideas?

Best answer:

Yes there is its called timescan. We use it in my company and you make bar codes and get a scan tool and they are used for are cost codes in the electric field. I am sure that it can be modified for your needs.

    I’m not sure about the software with which you’ll be able to scan the barcodes to a database but, in matter of creating a barcode, you can use CorelDraw which gives you the ability to create a barcode in various formats.
