how to get marching ants in Excel programmatically
 
I am trying to get marching ants in Excel programmatically.

I have some special data in certain cells. I added a menu item to right
click - when user clicks on that menu items then I want to show all the
cells (with marching ants around) that has special data. Is this possible to
do programatically?

Thanks in advance!!

Looks like you are out of luck unless you are willing to program it from
scratch.

You can't show that apart from on the ActiveSheet.

there is no reason you couldn't write your code to make cells on other
sheets blink, but I am not sure what purpose it would serve if no one can
see them blinking.
