countif color count
 

i wish to count the number of cells (in a given range) that contain tx
that is the colour red. so far i have been given this code to place i
a standard module:

Function Color(rngField As Object, intColor As Integer)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If rngAct.Interior.ColorIndex = intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
Next rngAct
Color = intCounter
End Function

but I am now unable to progress any further. Do I have to use th
=countif command? if so wot would formular be? Do I have to call upo
this function in an excel cell?

thanks for any help :

Hi
use this formula the following way:
=Color(A1:A100,color_index)
where A1:A100 is your given range and color_index the color to count
(red should be 3)

no. to count the red cells in A1:A100

in B1 (as an example)
=Color(A1:A100,3)

Hi
use the following
Function Color_font(rngField As Object, intColor As Integer)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If rngAct.Font.ColorIndex = intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
Next rngAct
Color_font = intCounter
End Function

or this version, which does fill or font colour.

Function Color_font(rngField As Object, intColor As Integer, Optional Text
As Boolean = False)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If Text Then
If rngAct.Font.ColorIndex = intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
If rngAct.Interior.ColorIndex = intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
End If
Next rngAct
Color_font = intCounter
End Function

=Color(A1:A100,3) returns the count of red filled cells, or
=Color(A1:A100,3, True) returns the count of red font cells

I'm pretty new to vba functions - so please bear with me!

I have a similar problem where I want to count any cells that have an
color fill other than the default "no fill".

Would it be possible to adapt the above code?

Many thanks in advance
Tamse

Hi
one easy way without changing the code would be counting all cells
within your range and subtracting the cells with the color_index for
'no fill'
Another way: change the macro as follows (will count all colors except
intcolor):

Function Non_Color(rngField As Object, intColor As Integer, Optional
Text
As Boolean = False)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If Text Then
If rngAct.Font.ColorIndex < intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
If rngAct.Interior.ColorIndex < intColor Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
End If
Next rngAct
Non_Color = intCounter
End Function

Believe Bob omitted an ELSE statement in his original post. This should do
what you ask.

Function Color_font(rngField As Object, _
intColor As Integer, Optional Text As Boolean = False)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If Text Then
If rngAct.Font.ColorIndex < xlColorIndexAutomatic Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
Else
If rngAct.Interior.ColorIndex < xlColorIndexNone Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
End If
Next rngAct
Color_font = intCounter
End Function

Oops, you can remove the IntColor argument

Function Color_font(rngField As Object, _
Optional Text As Boolean = False)
Dim intCounter As Integer
Dim rngAct As Range
For Each rngAct In rngField
If Text Then
If rngAct.Font.ColorIndex < xlColorIndexAutomatic Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
Else
If rngAct.Interior.ColorIndex < xlColorIndexNone Then
intCounter = intCounter + 1
End If
End If
Next rngAct
Color_font = intCounter
End Function

Works like a dream with the added Else statement.

Thank you so much for all your help

Tom's spot-on as usual, but IMO this is not the best way to count coloured
cells. A much better way is described here http://tinyurl.com/2u22g.

With this solution, you would use something like

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Colorindex(A1:H1000)<ColorIndex(L1))

where L1 would be a cell with no fill colour

Hi
one way:
add the line application.volatile at the beginning of the colorindex
function.
