    [Share] Excel Mini-Chat System

    Hey Guys,
    I've been searching for a solution to make a "internal-chat like" using excel for sometime but i didn't find anything conclusive so I made one and i wanted to share it with the community, maybe someone somewhere sometime will search the thread and use it as well.

    Why I did this chat system when it can be easily replaced by Skype, Discord, Slack, etc etc ?
    For the conditions i had to make it in order to not use any Internet access type data's and every "sent message" to be stored somewhere

    What does it do?
    - Send and messages though lan using a common network local area network (can be modified for queries )
    - Check / Uncheck if you want the data to be auto-updated every 5- 7 seconds (maybe mismatched the numbers)
    - Double enter from the keyboard to send message
    - Manual refresh etc
    - Auto - Scroll bars?
    - Everyday a new txt file is auto-made


    What I want to add in the future?
    - Windows notifications :
    # Calculate how many messages people had sent until your new update?
    # When someone joins the chat
    - Message when someone enters/leaves the chat room

    Have no idea how to do:
    - Private room
    - See how many people are present in real time
    - send cat gifs?


    Every idea to be added to it is welcomed, every critique is blessed. I want everyday to improve myself.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Although I am unable to share the file as it is not my property but my boss has developed the chat window where the admin and employee has different boot straps. I like it so much.
