How hard is it to create a form that does the following?

I need a form, where the user inputs a barcode number and a quantity.

They enter as many as they want, then press a button that creates a .txt file and places the barcode within the text.

So for example -

Printjob.txt
Label:/blahblahblah
SESSIONSTART
Articleprompt = (Barcode input by user)
SESSIONPRINT (Quantity input by user)
SESSIONEND

if the user was to input 2 barcodes, the .txt file would be created as

Printjob.txt
Label:/blahblahblah
SESSIONSTART
Articleprompt = (Barcode input by user)
SESSIONPRINT (Quantity input by user)
Artitleprompt = (Barcode input by user)
SESSIONPRINT (Quantity input by user)
SESSIONEND

The file that has been created from this data is then saved with a .job extension, and automatically opened.

I have very little VBA knowledge so just need to know if this is possible first :) Appreciate the help in advance.

Matt,

It sounds doable.

You need to know/decide:

What Bar Code Font you're using, If the printer has that Font installed, or should the form send it.

How the user enters the chosen bar code. Options are: Scans an existing bar code; Selects from a list of items maintained on an Excel Sheet.

How to chose the .job file's name.

What program opens the . job file.

Also you should PM a moderator from the list at the bottom of the Project Assistance index page and ask them to move this thread to the best help section of the forum.

Absolutely possible, even pretty easy.
