Default Combine the lists problem

I have a spreadsheet with 3 tabs, named "Red", "Green" and "Combined". The
data in columns A and B is the same on each tab, except that certain items
in column B of "Red" have text highlighted in Red, certain other items in
Column B of "Green" have text highlighted in green, while none of the text
in "Combined" is highlighted.

If an item in Column B of either "Red" or "Green" is highlighted, I want to
have the corresponding item of "Combined" highlighted in red. I was hoping
that the following macro would do it, but when I run it, it does not crash,
but it also appears to do nothing at all.

Can anyone help?

Dim WS1 As Worksheet
Dim WS2 As Worksheet
Dim WS3 As Worksheet
Dim Cell As Range
Set WS1 = Workbooks("£ account combined.xls").Sheets("Red")
Set WS2 = Workbooks("£ account combined.xls").Sheets("Green")
Set WS3 = Workbooks("£ account combined.xls").Sheets("Combined")
For Each Cell In WS1.Columns(2).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If Cell.Font.ColorIndex = 3 Then
WS3.Range(Cell.Address).Font.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
For Each Cell In WS2.Columns(2).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If Cell.Font.ColorIndex = 4 Then
WS3.Range(Cell.Address).Font.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next
End Sub
