Only View Highlighted Rows
 

Excel 2003 - How can I just view rows highlighted in yellow? I have an excel
spreadsheet with about 2000+ rows but I only want to view the rows that are
actually highlighted in yellow.

Thanks!

One way. This could potentially take a few seconds to run though. It
is looking at column A to determine the interior colorindex of the
row.
Sub hider()
Dim lRow As Long
Cells.EntireRow.Hidden = False
lRow = Cells.Find(what:="*", After:=[A1], _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
For i = 2 To lRow
If Not Cells(i, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 36 Then _
Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Hidden = True
Next i
End Sub

I'm not a fan on making selections in code at all, but this version
does run much quicker than the other I posted. Just giving you
options.
Sub test()
Dim selMade As Boolean, lRow As Long
selMade = False
Cells.EntireRow.Hidden = False
lRow = Cells.Find(what:="*", After:=[A1], _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
For i = 2 To lRow
If Not Cells(i, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 36 Then
If selMade = False Then
Cells(i, 1).Select
selMade = True
Else
Union(Selection, Cells(i, 1)).Select
End If
End If
Next i
Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = True
End Sub

Depends on how the color occurs, and if yellow is really yellow.
For instance if the color is as a result of Conditional Formatting
you won't detect it with that macro.

David, that is absolutely true. I was going on the assumption that
the OP was referring to cells that had their background color
physically changed to a specific color. Thanks for throwing that word
of caution out there!

Jeff
