Mike and Bob,

Rick is right Bobs code do not handle text strings..

Hey! We were having fun here and you (and Bob) ruined it for us.<g

I misread something earlier in the thread which seemed to indicate that
Bob's function wasn't complete, but in testing it, I see that it is. Thanks
for the wake-up call.

Rick, Jacob,

Apologies for breaking in on your thread but I think Bob Philips has
already
done this

Sorry, but I get both your old and new code missing some conditions (with
your new code missing more... fixing some of the ones the old code missed
plus adding new misses to the batch). Here are the set-ups that I get
your
code failing with...

Old Code
=================
Cell value is - not between 10 and 14 == Cell content = 1201
Cell value is - equal to ="" == Cell content is empty
Formula is - =SUM(A1,A3)=3 == Cell contents A1=2, A3=1

New Code
=================
Cell value is - equal to 2 == Cell content = 2
Cell value is - equal to ="Rick" == Cell content = Rick
Cell value is - greater than 0 == Cell content = 1
Cell value is - greater than or equal to 12 == Cell content = 12
Cell value is - between 10 and 14 == Cell content = 12
Formula is - =SUM(A1,A3)=3 == Cell contents A1=2, A3=1

Rick, Just try any text string under the first type 'Cell Value' is
"A". I
have modified mine which passed the initial testing. It is time to have
a
look at XL07..

Rick; both of us have missed to handle text strings..

Hi Rick

Yes; it is working and I really appreciate the enthusiasm and time
behind
this. However, dont you think it looks a bit complicated.

If you go by how Microsoft has designed the 'Conditional
Formatting'
user
interface and apply the same sequence while coding I think it is
quite
straightforward. The below can be used as a UDF for 2003 version.
Having
said
that I am not sure whether this would work for 2007.

Function GetCFColorIndex(C As Range) As Variant
Dim intCount As Integer, FC As FormatCondition, blnMatch As Boolean
If C.Count < 1 Then Exit Function


For intCount = 1 To C.FormatConditions.Count
'Loop through each Contidional Formatting
Set FC = C.FormatConditions(intCount)
If FC.Type = 1 Then
'Handle Type1-xlExpression (If 'Cell Value Is')
Select Case FC.Operator
Case xlBetween '1
If C.Value = FC.Formula1 And C.Value <= FC.Formula2 _
Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlNotBetween '2
If C.Value < FC.Formula1 Or C.Value FC.Formula2 Then _
blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlEqual '3
If C.Value = FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlNotEqual '4
If C.Value < FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlGreater '5
If C.Value FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlGreaterEqual '6
If C.Value = FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlLess '7
If C.Value < FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
Case xlLessEqual '8
If C.Value <= FC.Formula1 Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
End Select
Else
'Handle Type2-xlExternal (If 'Formula Is')
If Evaluate(FC.Formula1) Then blnMatch = True: Exit For
End If
Next

If blnMatch Then GetCFColorIndex = FC.Interior.ColorIndex
End Function

Ah, I see the problem now. Okay, what about the following
function
then? I
think I caught all the problem areas, but I can't be sure... the
Conditional

all.

If FC.Type = xlExpression Then
If Evaluate(FC.Formula1) Then GoTo Done
Else
If IsEmpty(C.Value) Then
CVal = """"""
Else

End If
