This was my original question on the Excel discussion group:
"I have a couple of rental properties abroad and have a simple Excel
spreadsheet with details of the booking, client, deposit paid, date balance
due etc. Is there any way that this can be linked to Outlook as a task or in
the calendar to alert me on the due date to remind me to chase the client for
payment of their balance?"
It was suggested that I look for a VBA solution - is this something I can do
myself, learn quickly, where do I start, any suggestions? (I did some
programming briefly about 20 years ago!!!!)
