Default Change a Search/report code for text into search/report color

Hello,

I found a fantastic code on the web to search through several excel file to find/report specific registered text values. Realy amazing. It reports the filename, specific sheet and the cell in a separate list. Great !

The challange I had is to change this code in such way that it search/reports not textvalues but filled in colors. I want to report the datafields which are marked with the color red (vbRed).

Can somebody, who is more clever then me, re-write the part that is required and changes the code in working for color.
Thanks a lot.

regards, Johan
