My esteemed listmates, I’m wondering if in Libre Writer or Calc a user can set up a sound or pop-up notification of an approaching deadline which sounds or pop-sup when you power on the PC or while Windows is open even though Word or Excel is *not* open? Ex. Due date for auto tire rotation – You don’t have Libre Writer or Calc open but Windows 7 is open. A sound (e.g. .mp3) launches or a box pops-up alerting you that in one week you need to rotate your tires. This is just an example so please don’t explore the issue of rotating tires! :) I was reading/watching these Excel suggestions (below) but they don’t seem to answer my questions about alerting sounds or pops-ups if the program is not open. https://excel.tips.net/T003179_Alerts_About_Approaching_Due_Dates.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiDfI4-kngw Has anyone set these kinds of notification? Thanks so much.
