Can dates entered Excel be flagged up in Outlook?

[Guest]

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?

Did you get an answer on this? I have a similar need. Thank you.

No, no reply unfortunately. But I notice that a couple of other people on
htis forum have similar requirements. Keep hoping!

Maybe you should try an OUTLOOK newsgroup, sounds more fitting there

Please up date the blog when you find an answer. I have been trying to find a
response and cannot find any information at all. I am wanting to merge dates
to Outlook Calendar, but if required I could use the Task function.

See my thread in the Outlook Discussion Group "Can Outlook alert me when
dates in Excel spreadsheet become current". I was given a suggestion about
programming with VBA but wouldn't know where to start. If you know any more
than me let me know! It does seem strange that this functionality is not
already available between the programmes - I'm sure it would be extremely
useful to many many users. Anyone from Microsoft out there with any more
ideas?
