Hi Tom,

Yours and Bernie Deitrick's 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.:)

Regards

Maybe:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim c As Range, rng as Range
On Error Resume Next
set rng = Range("A1:B1")
' don't trigger on a change to A1 or B1
if not intersect(rng,Target) is nothing then exit sub
For Each c In Range("D2:G5")
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, c.Precedents) Is Nothing Then
Interaction.Beep
End If
Next c
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

The below code

'-------------------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim c As Range
On Error Resume Next
For Each c In Range("D2:G5")
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, c.Precedents) Is Nothing
Then
Interaction.Beep
End If
Next c
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
'----------------------


sound 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 (Range D2:G5) look to the values displayed in A1 and
B1. Then the main macro 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.
