Hi, I did this in an excel spreadsheet years ago. Initially followed the instructions on the ATO website but found they were slightly wrong.
So after a little mucking around and validations against known ABN's I came up with a formula that works. (Which is only slightly different to what the ATO said anyway). Rather than explaining it here I would say just look at the spreadsheet. The top 1/2 shows how to generate an ABN from an ACN and the 2nd 1/2 validates an ABN. The only things that I ask is that you create a CFC that is open source and credits me with doing the initial ground work. Oh and make the CFC available to everyone as I am sure there are ppl out there with the same problems. The other good thing is that it would be easy to implelement into Javascript too.
