Default Automating Task within Excel To Send Emails

We have a user who currently uses a simple spreadsheet to list certain types
of enquiries they get. They would like to set up a macro, or such, to enable
an automatic prompt, for example an email, to be sent to a member of staff if
something hasnt been done by a certain time to remind them they need to do
something. The speadsheet deals with multiple enquires assigned to multiple
users.

Thanks Mike,

However what we need to do is for the task\macro to look at a cell, with a
date in it, and then compare it to the current date and if it is older then
current date email the user. This information is all on one sheet.
