Default Find cells w/background color based on conditional formatting

You would need to have a formula equivalent to the CF criteria in a
helper column, to return, say, Yes or No. Then you can filter that
helper column for all the cells that contain Yes. I'm not sure what
you mean when you say "Find" all the cells.

Hope this helps.

I know I can use Find to find all cells with a specific background color,
but it doesn't seem to work here where the color is determined by conditional
formatting. *Is there a way to do this?
