Flashing Cell
Hi,
making the cell flash requires vba, and can greatly reduce the workbook's performance. I'd recommend using conditional formatting instead, to change the cell's font and/or background to something that stands out. Cheers "HRH" wrote in message ...

Flashing Cell
I use VBA each time I record a macro and or go in and edit
a macro. Is there some type of pause command I can use in between formatting a cell in a macro (i.e. bold=true, bold=false, bold=true ..... so forth) Thanks HRH -----Original Message----- Hi, making the cell flash requires vba, and can greatly reduce the workbook's performance.

Flashing Cell
Hi HRH, you can use this code to flash the text as many times
as you want...just change the word 'look' to your needs... Public Sub fla****() ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "look" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "look" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "look" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "look" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = "look" Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")) End Sub seeya ste |
