popup balloon (not msgbox)
Hello!
Is it possible to create through VBA a popup balloon, like the ones that tell you have unused icons? (like this one http://lifehacker.com/350132/disable...-icons-balloon) It would be VERY cool! Thanks, Albert C |

The callouts (ballons) are on the drawing toolbar (View - Toolbars - Drawing)
under Autoshape - Callouts. Yo can add them programmably as follows: Set NewCallout = ActiveSheet.Shapes _ .AddShape(msoShapeRoundedRectangularCallout, _ 243#, 217.5, 72#, 48#) "Albert" wrote: Hello!

Hi Joel,
Thanks for your reply. I actually wanted one of those popups appearing on the taskbar, not within Excel.

The callouts are a picture and should be able to be copied where evey you
need them. You might have to put them on your worksheet then right click and saveas picture. Then inport the picture into your task bar. "Albert" wrote: Hi Joel, Thanks for your reply.

Thanks again Joel.
How would I go about importing a picture into the task bar? "Joel" wrote: The callouts are a picture and should be able to be copied where evey you need them.
