It is counted by VBA, the VBA returns an array of matching colours, it is
the SP formula. So use something like

=SUMPRODUCT(--(C1:C1000<0),--(ColorIndex(C1:C1000)=Colorindex(A1))

where A1 is coloured with your test colour.

That works a treat! Thanks.
However, I have an additional complication in that I only want to count
cells of a specific colour AND with non-zero values. I'm afraid my VBA
isn't
up to it!
Any idea?
