Default How do I create a popup notification in excel ?

OK, I want to monitor 2 ranges; F3:F40 , if any one of then = "PM Service"
then I want to use value in corresponding cell in range C3:C40, then add set
value 15000, when value in Range C3:C40 reaches that total value I want a
popup reminder that it is "Time for an oil change". This will need to work
across multiple workbooks, I hope.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "H10" '<=== change to suit

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
If .Value 100 Then
MsgBox "Target reached"
End If
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.

I use an excel workbook to keep track of trips (mileage, stops, fuel,

oil
changes, ect....). I want to creat a popup notification for oil

changes
that
monitors a range of cells and pops up when mileage is reached. I

created
the
workbook myself and always trying to improve it.
