Hi Jake,
That is correct. And on the above thread (opened by me with same question
) which solution suggestions were
given by Bob, Bernie and Tom all proposals achieved a solution of stopping
"false alarms" (beeps that occur because of the system clock minute changes
reflected by another macro). But now although there is no sound beeps on
minute changes, there is no sound either on changes with the watched range
display. Possibly I am missing something...or we all are.:)

Hi J_J,
Let's see if I follow what you're looking to do. You would like the beep
to occur if any of the cells referenced by the "complex IF formula" cells
change. But you don't want the beep if the only cell(s) that changed were
A1 and/or B1. Is that correct?

Jake,
I modified your code handling the error control as you suggested and
now receive no error messages. Thanks for that. But the trouble is
that now I get the sound alert on each minute change of my system
clock. You see, cells A1 and B1 displays the system clock hour and
minute values. And the watching cells (list given in my other reply)
look to the values displayed in A1 and B1. The main macro (not yours)
is executed in minute intervals to let A1 and B1 refresh their
displays. Now although no "display" change is valid in the watched
cells the sound alarm beeps in minute intervals too. Maybe my other
suggestion may prevent that. I hope I didn't confuse you... Hope we can
solve this problem.

Hi J_J,
Sorry - I should have caught that. You can put an On Error Resume
Next at the beginning of the code and an On Error Goto 0 at the end
of the code to fix it.

Hi Jake,
I received a "no cells were found" error (Run time error '1004')
when activating the workbook for the
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, c.Precedents) Is Nothing
Then
line of your code. I've changed my region to D2:G6...as it is the
region I'd watch.
Any ideas why?

Hi J_J,
You should be able to do this with the Change event of the
Worksheet object. Copy the following code into the worksheet's
code module (right-click your sheet tab and select View Code):
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("A6:D6")
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, _
c.Precedents) Is Nothing Then
Interaction.Beep
End If
Next c
End Sub
Just change the A6:D6 to the range containing the 10-15 cells that
contain the formulas you want to watch.

Hi,
My question is on the subject line...
I have a worksheet which has 10-15 cells with long IF statements
as formulas.
The cell formulas are in the form of (not exactly of course):
=IF(A1=condition1 OR B1=condition2, display"first message", else
if(A1=condition2 AND B1=condition3), display"second message", else
display "third message")
etc.
I need to use my laptops internal speaker to sound an alarm (bip)
or call a *.wav file to play.... "if" any one of the cell value is
"changed" because of the conditions on any one of the cell is
changed .
Can this be done via VBA?. I'd appreciate if code samples can be
given.
TIA
