Color of worksheet Tab
 

Is it possible to check the colour of a worksheet tab through code? if yes
how?

I have red tabs and green tabs and want to create a summary sheet of only
the red sheets

Thanks

Hi AliH,

Try:

'============================
Public Sub TesterAAA()

Dim i As Long

For i = 1 To ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
If Worksheets(i).Tab.ColorIndex = 3 Then 'Red
Sheets("YourSummarySheet").Cells(i + 1, "A").Value _
= Worksheets(i).Name
End If
Next i

End Sub
'<<============================

Change the sheet name to suit.

Sub showcolornumbers()
For i = 1 To 56
Cells(i, 1).Value = i
Cells(i, 2).Interior.ColorIndex = i
Next

End Sub


would show you the colors available in your workbook.

Hi AliH,

See ColorIndex Property in VBA help for a list for the default color
palette.

I would just add to Tom and Norman's replies that the color assigned to a
Colorindex is customizable under Tools, Options, Color. So it's not
necessarily a fixed thing. I.e., 3 is not always red, it can be any color
assigned to it.
