Default If color in a then value in b

There's your solution (if you think about it!)

Answer this question:

Why are you making the value a certain color?

Because it's 0? Because it's <100? ???

Hi!

Use the same logic that you used to apply the conditional

formatting
to
create a formula for column M.

Hi all,
The perfect answer for my situation would be a formula, however i
may
have to resort to code.
Any input appreciated.

In Col L (row 5 to 108) i have numbers, which through conditional
formating,
turn colors. If the color is Bold Blue, then i need that value

put
into
Col M, otherwise nothing.

IE: (in M1)
If(L1=Color is Bold Blue,L1,"")

Hi Biff,

Thx for your input.
Making a value, a certain color, is easy.
Making a color, a certain value, however escapes me.
Sooo i am going to sleep on it. Some of my best work is from

dreaming.

Hi Biff & Bob,

Ok, got 3 hours sleep and reading your & Bobs posts the light finally
went on.
The numbers in Col L have Conditional Formating turning them Blue Bold
if that
number is found in a range
'=COUNTIF($G5:$K5,$L5)

Before I was thinking i had to have Col M go off of the color, in Col
L.

BUT the color really has nothing to do with it. So i used an IF formula
in Col M
with the same criteria as is in the Conditional Formating of Col L
'=IF(COUNTIF($G5:$K5,$L5),L5,"")

Works great.
Thx guys for making me use my brains.
