I am using the following Macro - the formula I use to access the macro is

=sumBYCOLOR(C13:H22,3,TRUE)

The problem I am having is that the formula does not automatically
calculate
no information inputted into the excel sheet. I have to go to the cell
with
the formula and place my cursor at the end of the formula and hit enter
for
it to adjust with the new information. Any help?

Macro is:Function SumByColor(InRange As Range, WhatColorIndex As Integer,
_
Optional OfText As Boolean = False) As Double
'
' This function return the SUM of the values of cells in
' InRange with a background color, or if OfText is True a
' font color, equal to WhatColorIndex.
'
Dim Rng As Range
Dim OK As Boolean

Application.Volatile True
For Each Rng In InRange.Cells
If OfText = True Then
OK = (Rng.Font.ColorIndex = WhatColorIndex)
Else
OK = (Rng.Interior.ColorIndex = WhatColorIndex)
End If
If OK And IsNumeric(Rng.Value) Then
SumByColor = SumByColor + Rng.Value
End If
Next Rng

End Function


I modified the code a bit so a user can select the color by incduing a cell
range reference:

Function SumByColor(InRange As Range, rColor As Range, _
Optional OfText As Boolean = False) As Double
'
' This function return the SUM of the values of cells in
' InRange with a background color, or if OfText is True a
' font color, equal to WhatColorIndex.
'
' the user can select the color by including a reference to a call or a
range of cells
' of the appropriate color

Dim Rng As Range
Dim iClr As Integer ' the color to sum
Dim iCellClr ' the color of the cell
Dim OK As Boolean

Application.Volatile True

If OfText = True Then
iClr = rColor.Font.ColorIndex
Else
iClr = rColor.Interior.ColorIndex
End If

For Each Rng In InRange.Cells
If OfText = True Then
iCellClr = Rng.Font.ColorIndex
Else
iCellClr = Rng.Interior.ColorIndex
End If

If IsNumeric(Rng.Value) And iCellClr = iClr Then
SumByColor = SumByColor + Rng.Value
End If

Next Rng

Application.Calculate

End Function
