Hi Guys,
If you want to preserve the Undo/Redo functionality, you may want to try
this:
1) Create a named formula called TIMER
=MOD(SECOND(NOW()),2)=1
2) Select the range you want to blink subject to a condition (or multiple
conditions), say range A1:A100
3) Apply the following Conditional Format
=TIMER*(A1<0)
where (A1<0) is one of the many possible conditions.
4) put the following code into the VBA module of ThisWorkbook:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
StopBlinking
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
StartBlinking
End Sub
5) put the following code into a standard module (say Module1):
Dim dtNext As Date
Sub StartBlinking()
dtNext = Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Application.Calculate 'or Application.ScreenUpdating=True
Application.OnTime dtNext, "StartBlinking"
End Sub
Sub StopBlinking()
Application.OnTime dtNext, "StartBlinking", schedule:=False
End Sub
