Flashing/Blinking background color of cell when a specific text is entered

  • Hi to all,


    I'm a beginner with VBA coding and I'm trying to figure out what to write as VBA macro in Excel.


    I want the background of a cell containing specific text "TBD" to flash from Red to White. For example, when someone enters "TBD" in the cell C10 and C28. I want the cells in the range C3:C31 to blink when the TBD is entered. See the attached file,


    Thanks for your help!
