Default Count number of cells that are highlighted

Hi Barb,

You can do this with formulae in cells using the same logic as your
conditional formatting formulae.

Something other than a white background and a black font. It is

highlighted
with a conditional format. Let's say I have selected cells B1:B10. I

want
to know how many are highlighted.

Thanks

Hi Barb

How do you determine which cells have background highlighting? Is it all
cells on a worksheet, a named range or a particular area?

Is the background highlighting dynamic (eg the result of conditional
formatting)?

What colour(s) do you use for the background highlighting?

Cheers

I'd like to have a formula that would allow me to enter a range of

values
and
it would tell me how many cells have background highlighting

(something
along
the lines of countif). Can someone assist?

Thanks,
