Blinking reminder cells

Is it possible to set a cell to begin blinking on a specific date, or at all? I keep my business "ABC list' (my priority to do list) on excel which is fairly complex and stretches down 40-50 rows. I wish that I could have a cell begin to blink its text or even have it blink in a highlighted color to remind me to do something down the road.

If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Welcome to the MrExcel forum!

I would hate blinking cells and have never used them, preferring standard Conditional Formatting instead. A brightly coloured (non-blinking) cell would be enough to attract my attention.

However, if you want to investigate further, you could see if there is anything of use here.
