Default Sub to list colorindexes and the corresponding fill colours


Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Set rng = Range("A1")
For i = 0 To 50
rng.Offset(i, 0) = i
rng.Offset(i, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = i
Next i
End Sub

Thanks, Mangesh

Despite several tries at running your sub, I kept hitting a run-time error
1004
"Unable to set the colorindex property of the interior class"

Clicking debug highlighted this line:
rng.Offset(i, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = i

What can I do ?

Set the TakeFocusOnClick property if the command button to false.

Hi Max,

If you run this macro through a standard module, you would get an error. Run
it through the module of the sheet in question. For standard module, you
need to reference the range with its parent sheet, and thats why you get an
error.

Hi, I got your sub to work on a command button? drawn on a sheet
but only with the setting done as advised by Tom earlier, i.e.:
"Set the TakeFocusOnClick property of the command button to False"
(this might be due to my xl97 version?)

I did change the line: "For i = 0 To 50" a little to: "For i = 1 To 56"
though, for consistency with the suggestions by the other responders

Thanks
