Speak

Let Excel talk to you.

Paste the following line into a convenient procedure and run it. Every time you enter a value into a cell, or press Enter, Excel will tell you the current value.

Application.Speech.SpeakCellOnEnter = True

This will tell you the active cell's value. "SpeakCellOnEnter" does not have to be active for this to work.

Application.Speech.Speak ActiveCell.Value

Leave a message for someone

Application.Speech.Speak "Hello Bill"
