Is there any way to do this? As of now, if the file is minimized my MsgBox only pops up when excel is active. Ideally, I'd like my co-workers to be able to do what ever they want, but be alerted when they need to be alerted with a MsgBox popping up into their fore ground.

Can this even be done with excel? Maybe if I play a wav file, even if the msgbox doesn't pop up until they activate excel the sound will still play??

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
