Is there a forumula that uses colors instead of cell #'s?
 

I am creating a worksheet where different items are highlighted several
different colors. Is there a way to create a formula that changes when I
change the highlighted color of the row instead of having to remove a cell or
cells from one formula and add it to another? Thanks for any help!!

No, as a colour change does not force a sheet recalculation.

But you can have a formula that will reevaluate when the workbook reculates:

But that requires a manual action to recalculate, it won't happen if the
cell colour is just changed.
