Free PDF417 Barcode Generator The Free PDF417 barcode generator is an online barcode generator tool which creates 2D barcodes. A PDF417 barcode is categorized as a 2D, non-linear code.

I would like to generate a 2d barcode (PDF417 or QR codes) in an Excel cell using macros. Just wondering is there any free alternatives to paid libraries to do this?
I know certain tools can do the job but it is relatively expensive to us.

The VBA module barcode-vba-macro-only (mentioned by Sébastien Ferry in the comments) is a pure VBA 1D/2D code generator created by Jiri Gabriel under MIT License in 2013.
The code isn't completely simple to understand, but many comments have been translated from Czech to English in the version linked above.
To use it in a worksheet, just copy or import barcody.bas into your VBA in a module. In a worksheet, put in the function like this:
The usage is as follows:
- Leave the
CELL('SHEET)
andCELL('ADDRESS')
as they are since it'sjust giving reference to the worksheet and cell address you have theformula- A2 is the cell that you have your string to be encoded. In my case it's cell A2 You can pass 'Text' with quotes to do the same. Having the cell makes it more dynamic
- 51 is the option for QR Code. Other options are 1=EAN8/13/UPCA/UPCE, 2=two of five interleaved, 3=Code39, 50=DataMatrix, 51=QRCode
- 1 is for graphical mode. The barcode is drawn on a Shape object. 0 for font mode. I assume you need to have the font type installed.Not as useful.
- 0 is the parameter for the particular barcode type. For QR_Code, 0=Low Error Correction, 1=Medium Error Correction, 2=Quartile errorcorrection, 3=high error correction.
- 2 only applies to 1D codes. It's the buffer zones. I'm not certain what it does exactly but probably something to do with the1D bar spaces?
I added wrapper functions to make it a pure VBA function call rather than using it as a formula in a worksheet:
With this wrapper, you can now simply call to render QRCode by calling this in VBA:
Just input the worksheet name, cell location, and the QR_value. The QR shape will get drawn at the location you specified.
You can play around with this section of the code to change the size of the QR

I know this is quite an old and well-established post (though the very good existing answer has not been accepted yet), but I would like to share an alternative that I prepared for a similar post in StackOverflow in Portuguese using the free online API from QR Code Generator.
The code is the following:
It gets the job done by simply (re)creating an image from the URL built from the parameters in the cells. Naturally, the user must be connected to the Internet.
For example (the worksheet, with contents in Brazilian Portuguese, can be downloaded from 4Shared):
