    Resolved >> Play a sound when a cell equals a certain value

    Is there any way of playing a sound (or even better, speech) whenever a specific cell equals a certain value or contains a certain string (such as "Alarm")?

    This has to happen automatically as the cell updates and require no interaction.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Excellent, thanks VBA Noob, I now have an audio alarm sounding exactly as I needed it.

    Your assistance is much appreciated.

    Unhappy Re: Resolved >> Play a sound when a cell equals a certain value

    Hey there,

    I am trying to get this function to work, but when I use the formula =Alarm(A1,">=1000"), all I get in the Excel workbook is #Name?.

    Am I missing something??!

    Thanks in advance,

    TM
