That is why you should not base calculations on cell formats.

I am using the =countbycolor function provided by Chip Pearson
(http://www.cpearson.com/excel/colors.htm) to count cells with a certain
color font and am experiencing the following two anomalies:

- Formulas do not automatically update, automatic calculations is ON in
all
worksheets, except when deleting cells. Adding cells or changing cells,
and
selecting desired font, requires manual update.

- Clearing or deleting contents of cell/row doesn't change the formula
results, even after manually updating. When the cell/row is deleted, the
formulas results change properly after manual update.

Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
much!
