Default Reminder pop-up

OK, Thank you, since this is a macro, Please explain how to set it up in
laymen's terms.
Thanks in advance for your patients.

formulas have = preceding them. This is a macro
You did say POP UP. formulas don't pop up.
However, the conditional formatting solution may fit your needs.

Thank you,
I don't mean to appear ignorant but where am I entering this formula?
When I add the = with the formula in the cell I get a error.

Better to use

If Date = DateSerial(Year(Date),7,23) Then MsgBox "hh"

in case of international date formats.

Hello group,

Is it possible to have a pop-up window that reminds me of a birthday
or anniversary etc. I realize Outlook can do this for me but I'm in
sales and I have a spreadsheet with a customer database and sales
tracker. It would be convenient to have that all in one spreadsheet.
I'm not an expert in excel yet, can anyone point me in the right
direction?
Thanks,
Digital2k
