conditional formatting w/ color as input vs output
There is a lot of info on how to change a cells color with conditional
formatting function. Is it possible to do the opposite? That is, can the cells color be used as the input instead of a cell value? example, If cell A is shaded blue, then roll B will be shaded orange. |

You can do this through code but not conditional formatting.

Use color index, something like this depending what you want
If Cells(1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 8 Then Cells(1, 2) = "Accounting" if you want to test first cells(1,1).interior.colorindex=8 -- -John Please rate when your question is answered to help us and others know what is helpful.
