Hi all,

Is it somehow possible to make a selection based on the red colors i
attached file?

In other words; iso manually creating the sheet "Part" based on sheet
"WINS" & "CONT" can this be done automatically...

... to come to a specific list shown in sheet "Overview"


I suppose I have to make use of VBA? Please keep in mind I have n
experience in this whatsoever..

Thank you for helping me out on this one !

Thank you for the quick response Jim!

I presume I have to start using next function ?


Function CountByColor(InRange As Range, _
WhatColorIndex As Integer, _
Optional OfText As Boolean = False) As Long
'
' This function return the number of cells in InRange with
' a background color, or if OfText is True a font color,
' equal to WhatColorIndex.
'
Dim Rng As Range
Application.Volatile True

For Each Rng In InRange.Cells
If OfText = True Then
CountByColor = CountByColor - _
(Rng.Font.ColorIndex = WhatColorIndex)
Else
CountByColor = CountByColor - _
(Rng.Interior.ColorIndex = WhatColorIndex)
End If
Next Rng

End Function


But then? What's next ? How can I get excel automatically make a
overview based on those colored cells?
As stated before; vba is not my kind of thing...

Anyone?:confused
