Default Test for coloured cells?

Why not make your determinations on the value of the cell.
Rather than rely on color.

Otherwise you will have to use code to determin the "color" of the cell.

I have entered a UDF given to me in an earlier question and it works. But,
if cells are altered it does not update as normal formulas do? Here's what
i've entered:

Function IsRed(r As Range) As Integer
IsRed = 0
If r.Interior.ClorIndex = 3 Then
IsRed = 1
End If
End Function

Then in the cell i want the answer:

=IF(IsRed(A1)=1,"P","")

If a cell is red I want to record "P" If clear "", but i want it to change
from "" to "P" if the cell is coloured at a later date. Any Ideas?

Thanx
