I can do that, the problem I run into is then how to ignore the blank cells,
since there may only be three columns filled, or all 8, or any number in
between.

There is no other way around it other than code. If you do want to
investigate the code option here is a great resource...

I need a formula that checks the color of text in a cell that was applied
using conditional formatting. Unfortunately I cannot use any VB scripting
since the security policy at my organization will not allow it. I don't even
know if this can be done. If not I will be forced to have a miles long
formula.
If the text of the cells in any of 8 columns is red, then I need to copy
information. The cell text can be either red, green, black, or the cell
could be blank. I will need to ignore blank cells for this formula.
I don't even know where to begin on this one.
