I have a spreadsheet with numbers in every column and row with different
color fonts. I need to add up the numbers that are red, blue, green, etc.
For example:
A1 - 1.3 (red)
B2 - 1.5 (blue)
A5 - 1.0 (red)
D3 - 1.7 (blue)

I want cell A7 to add the red 1.3 + 1.0 and show me a total of 2.3 for red.
Then again in cell A8 to add the blue 1.5 + 1.7 and show a total of 3.2 for
blue.

I already have a colorfunction for counting the highlighted cell of a
certain color =ColorFunction($M$76,C7:AG73,FALSE) and this was working.
Until I tried adding another ColorFunction in a new vb module to SUM but the
cell that I've typed the formula in =ColorFunction($H$73,C7:AG73,TRUE) first
comes up with a Microsoft Visual Basic box: Ambiguous name detected:
ColorFunction and the cell has an error showing #NAME?. I'm not real smart
on formulas so I'm trying to learn, but the posts out there relating to this
question have confused me. I appreciate your time and patience. Thank you.

You are almost there. Just rename your new function to make it different
from the original.

Do you mean type in something like ColorSum instead of ColorFunction in the
VB module??
