Can I make a negative number blink in excel

I seem to recall that there's a way to mimic this using VBA, but I'm afraid I
don't recall the title of the thread.

If you were looking for a simpler answer, I'm afraid there isn't a
font/conditional format that does this.

Hi,

To clarify, Excel doesn't have this as a built-in feature. You need to use
one of the VBA solutions. FYI - Word had a feature for allowing blinking
text backgrounds, but they have taken it out in 2007. It wouldn't have done
you any good anyway because bringing it into Excel it stops blinking.

If you imbed a Word object which has blinking text (or other special effects
enhancements) you can see it in Excel by double-clicking the object (but in
reality you are now in Word, in Excel)

I think you use the symbol :"-" before numbers
