Understand. And this works fine if I execute the macro after changing the
color of the cell. But I want the change to take place as soon as I change
the color of the cell.

Sooo, it seems to do what I wan if I place the VB routine you suggested in
the Sheet25(Sheet25) area with a header of Private Sub
Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range), rather than in Module1.

Now whenever I navigate way from the cell after changing its color, the tab
on the corresponding sheet changes. Is there a better solution? I'm pretty
green in the VB world.

Thx for your help, John

Looks good, but where do I put this routine?

How do I make the worksheet tab color be the same as the color of a
cell
in
another worksheet?
