Alert if no 'Smiling face"?

Many a times I have accidently switch off EA when interchanging accounts. Is there a way to create an Alert if the EA is accidently turned off (no "Smiling face") ? Any input will be appreciated...

why dont uncheck the box in Tool/Option--> "Expert Advisors" tab
--> Disable experts when the account has been changed
--> Disable experts when the profile has been changed

instead

i think it has to be an indicator .. cos if the expert button is off, then the ea can not work but indicator still

and maybe something like this

#include <WinUser32.mqh>

if(!IsExpertEnabled())
{
MessageBox("Expert Button Is Off","Message",MB_OK|MB_ICONWARNING);
PlaySound("alert.wav");
}
