I am building a colour key for a a model to note which cells have bee
imputted by which people. As a result I want to set up say 6 colours
in a legend and then run a macro to count the existence of each colour
in the model. A coutif based on colour if you will.

Is there an information function in Excel which will return the colour
format of a cell. For example:

Info(A1) = 2 [2 meaning a particular colour format which is evident in
cell A1]

Or should I just go the VBA route with a custom function since I will
be building a routine to count the colours anyway?

Thanks.
