Macro to automatically open a website or send an e-mail in excel
 
How might I create a macro that detects when a field is changed from one
status to another and automatically either creates a popup to a webaddress or
sends an e-mail?

For example: In the Status field, You can select yes, no or maybe. If the
value is changed from yes to no, I would like macro to automatically detect
this and create a questionnaire e-mail or to link to a website.
Any help would be greatly apppreciated.

Hi Ron,

Thank you for the suggestion, I'm still playing around with it as I have
very little experience with Excel macros. I was wondering if it is possible
to automatically open a internet explorer browser with a preset webaddress
instead?

Also, do you know if you can run macros from an excel uploaded into a
sharepoint site?
Thanks,

-Byron
