Default How to output text that blinks?

I am trying to do an edit check using a formula with the IF function, and
want to generate an error message with text that will blink when displayed
(i.e. the word ERROR to blink on and off when the word is displayed. I think
there is an ASCII combination that will cause the text to blink by using the
CHAR function, but I do not know the exact ASCII character sequence to make
this happen. Does anyone have a solution to my question?
