Default Reminder from Excel Workbook

Is there a way to automatically set up an Outlook pop up reminder from Excel
based on a certain entry a user inputs in to a workbook.

Basically if a date is inserted in to cell "H4" I want to automatically
create and reminder for the person name identified in cell "I4" to follow up
on the subject quote listed in cell "E4" in 3 days?

Not sure if this is possible, But I thought I throw it out there. If it is
not possible, boes someone have an idea as to what might work for this?

thanks
Peter

Default Reminder from Excel Workbook

How could Outlook possibly fire a reminder based on an Excel cell value?

You would have to write Outlook code in the Excel VBA project to respond to
that input and create an Outlook item with a reminder set on it.
