Default Changing color of cells

Yours turns all weeks blue, when every other is supposed to be black.

I'd suggest a slightly different approach:

Public Sub Working()
Dim response As Long
response = MsgBox("Do you work the first weekend?", vbYesNo)
With Range("A2:D53").FormatConditions
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlExpression, _
Formula1:="=MOD(ROW(C3),2)=" & 1 + (response = vbYes)
.Item(1).Font.Color = vbBlue
End With
End Sub

This allows you to add or subtract rows and maintain the font color.

Need to change color of every other row, but only that portion of row

the range.
Here is what I have.


Sub working()
Dim x As Integer
Dim response
response = MsgBox("Do you Work the first weekend?", vbYesNo)
If response = vbYes Then
x = 0
Else
x = 1
End If

With Worksheets("Yearly Planner")
For Each cell In .Range("A2:D53")
With cell
If x = 0 Then
.Font.Color = vbBlue ' working weekend
Else
.Font.Color = black 'off weekend
End If
End With

' does Excel go to next cell in row or in column?


End Sub

Thanks Carl
