How to count grayed out lines in excel
Hi there,
I am trying to track the progress of a project where we have over 1000 line items to review. We would gray out the line that has been completed. Is there a function where excel can count the number of lines grayed out so that I don't have to manually count since they are not being grayed out in order. Would appreciate your help, thanks! Shirley |

How to count grayed out lines in excel
If using 2003 version select a column and EditFindFormat.
Select the gray pattern and Find All. In the 'Found" dialog box hit SHIFT + down arrow. Click on Status bar and select "Count" Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Fri, 28 Mar 2008 10:32:48 -0700 (PDT), sfnbgirl wrote: Hi there, I am trying to track the progress of a project where we have over 1000 line items to review.

How to count grayed out lines in excel
Thanks so much Gord. I am now able to count the grayed out lines, but
is there a macro I can put in place where it will count the lines automatically and subtract that from the total number of lines? |

You can use Chip Pearson's CountByColor function.
