This is new to me. I have copied it into the VB sheet and placed the
following formula in a cell but it only shows #Name. What am I doing
wrong.
I did this to both the countbycolor and the return colorindex value
functions
and neither work.

Is there a way to have a formula that is based on a cell colour or

the way a cell is formated? I need it to count the number of
occurrences
