Hi there
Here's how to do it in EXCEL - really simple

I actually don't like ACCESS - it's a HORRIBLE limited not very robust data base system -- if you need a proper database system use something like MySQL instead.

Anyway once you've got the Bar code into your EXCEL spread sheet it should be easy importing that into your application.

However if you want to use ACCESS also easy
