Formula based on format of cell
How do I create a formula based on the format of a cell? For example, I want
to add up all values of the cells that are red. Can I do this? How? |

You can't do this with a formula. It would have to be VBA.

The first link I tried but Excel said it was an incorret name. The second
link was way to hard to understand. I need something set out simply and clearly. "David Biddulph" wrote: You can't do this with a formula. It would have to be VBA. http://xldynamic.com/source/xld.ColourCounter.html http://www.cpearson.com/excel/colors.aspx -- David Biddulph |

If Excel is telling you that you have an incorrect name, you have presumably
not correctly defined the ColorIndex UDF. If you are struggling to understand the links I gave you, then I guess you'll struggle with http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/Sum.htm too. As I said, "You can't do this with a formula.". If you can't cope with the VBA you can't do it. -- David Biddulph ant wrote: The first link I tried but Excel said it was an incorret name.
