About Excel.scholar Sound Effects

There are sound spreadsheets. Then there are spreadsheets with sound.    Sure, it's fair to say sound is not Excel's biggest strength, nor has it ever been a priority.    Yet, it has several underrated purposes: to alert, guide, indicate, and enhance user experience.    Much like how conditional formatting draws your attention towards certain values and patterns using visual cues, sound does the same with audio cues.    In the video, several methods for how sound can be used are explained. And yes, they do all use VBA…    𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝟭 --- Sub Play()       Beep     End Sub  --- The simplest way to play a sound is to use the built-in Beep command. This macro can be attached to a button that plays every time it's clicked.    𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝟮 --- Public Declare PtrSafe Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal hModule As LongPtr, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long  Public Const SND_ASYNC = &H1  Public Const SND_FILENAME = &H20000     Sub Play()        PlaySound "\\Mac\Home\Desktop\alarm.wav", 0, SND_ASYNC Or SND_FILENAME     End Sub  --- For a custom sound, the process is a lot trickier. It's necessary to publicly declare the PlaySound function from the Windows multimedia library, as well as two constants. SND_ASYNC Is used so you can interact with the worksheet while the code runs, while SND_FILENAME checks if the string provided is the name of a sound file.    The PlaySound function is then called into the macro along with the path to the audio file, which must use the .wav extension. 0 is given to load from a file, and the two constants are also pulled in.    Click the button again, and the custom sound plays!     𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝟯 --- Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)        If Range("B8").Value > 2500 Then             PlaySound "\\Mac\Home\Desktop\alarm.wav", 0, SND_ASYNC Or SND_FILENAME        End If     End Sub   --- Using a budget planner as a real-world example, several categories are listed in a table with allocated costs alongside them. In order to play the custom sound when the Total row exceeds a certain threshold, an If statement checks if the value in B8 is above 2500. This uses the Worksheet_Change event in the Sheet1 object to trigger the check after a cell has been edited.    𝘕𝘰𝘵𝘦: 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦 2 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦 3 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬.   #exceleration #excel #globalexcelsummit
