Default Find purple cell color, change to red

I'm new to VBA and am interesting in having macro that after highlighting a
range of cells, would evaluate each cell's color. For every cell that is
purple, I want it to be changed to red.

Thanks,

Jeff

Try this code:
13 is the number for violet.
3 is the number for red.

To capture the number for purple - record a macro while you change a cell
color to purple...

Dim cel As Range
For Each cel In Selection
If cel.Interior.ColorIndex = 13 Then
cel.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next


To test for colors try this code. It will color each cell and the
color number will be the same as the row number.
Note that after 56 it creates an error...

Dim cel As Range
For Each cel In Range("A1:A56")
cel.Interior.ColorIndex = cel.row
End If
Next
