Code 39 is one of the most widely used barcode symbologies. It's quite easy to implement: just put asterisks before and after your data, then apply Barcodesoft font.
With Barcodesoft Code39 package and Microsoft® Office, it is very convenient to print code39 bar code from your Windows computer and desktop printer.
1. Start Microsoft® Excel® first.
If you are using Excel 2000 or 2003, click menu ===> Tools ==> Macro ===> Security.
Choose Low security level.
If you are using Excel 2007, click the Microsoft Office Button 
Then click Excel Options, choose Trust Center. In the Macro Settings category, under Macro Settings,
choose "Enable all macros" as shown below.
2. Press ALT + F11 to open Microsoft® Visual Basic editor.
3. Press Ctrl+M, it will popup a dialog, choose barcodesoft.bas under
C:\Program File\CommonFiles\Barcodesoft\Fontutil folder. Then click "Open".

4. Close Visual Basic and go back to your spreadsheet. Now, you can use one of the following macros to encode data: Code39, Code39Mod43. When you have lots of data to process, you can just copy and paste the macro to the whole column of data.
=Code39(xxx)
=Code39Mod43(xxx)
Please use cell reference to replace xxx in the formulas as shown below.
5. Right click Cell B1, choose Format Cell from context menu. Then click Font to apply one of the appropriate font typefaces to the cell.
