Default creating rows of colored cells from adjacent numbers

Hi Bernie,

Thanks for getting back to me.

That does appear to be the problem line of code.

I have the following formula delivering results to the number column.

=IF(LEFT(B5,1)="b",Summary!B29,IF(LEFT(B5,1)="s",S ummary!B30,""))

I make a cell in the number column equal the cell with the formula above and
likewise for other numbers down the column.

The code works fine when a number is delivered by this formula, however it
grinds to a halt when it delivers the blank.

Ive tried

=IF(LEFT(B5,1)="b",Summary!B29,IF(LEFT(B5,1)="s",S ummary!B30,0))

But this doesnt work either.

I also tried to substitute the amendment you suggested, however it still
doesnt work.

An alternative will be for me to have a userform read the numbers from the
formula cells and then deliver actual integers to the number column, but this
would be a drastic solution.

What do you think?

Best regards,

Roger
