Default Warning - Blinking fonts in Excel

Hi,
Word has a few font types that blink / flash or are dynamically highlighted
with "marching red ants" etc. I wish to use such font in Excel as a caution
font in conditional validation. Any ideas anyone ?
Tks.

Much better to data validate so that when the user lands on the cell, a
message pops up (Data, Validation)

or alternatively, use conditional formatting so that you can highlight with
shading ect depending on the cell's contents. (Format, Conditional Formatting)
