Don't know if this is the right NG to post this message in, but thought I'd
try! If it ain't could somebody please point me in the right direction?

Within the cells in Column D in one of my Spreadsheet docs, some of the
cells will be shaded red and their date will be prior to today's date (that
is to say the date when the spreadsheet is opened!)

Now, what I would like is, when there are any cells within this column which
are shaded red or are past that day's date, I would like a message to pop up
on the Desktop saying something like "You have some accounts to be deleted!"
Furthermore, even if the Excel spreadsheet hasn't been used that day, I
would like it to still pop up with the message!

Any ideas?

NB: This spreadsheet will be used on my work's computer where a lot of
priviledges or barred etc.....
