I've been using this "IsRed" UDF for some time now to identify cells in
which data has been changed to red. Public Function IsRed(rg As Range) As Boolean Application.Volatile IsRed = rg.Font.ColorIndex = 3 End Function For example, in cell B1, I would enter this formula to test cell A1: =if(IsRed(A1),1,0) I have 2 questions regarding this: 1.) If I change the entry in cell A1 to red, B1 will automatically change to 1. Conversely, however, if I change A1 back to black (or any other color), B1 does not automatically change to 0. I have to hit F9 in order for that to happen, and if I (or the user) forgets to hit F9, we've got problems. Is there any way to have it automatically change to 0 just like it automatically changes to 1? 2.) In a particular worksheet, there are about 500 rows of data in 33 fields that go from column A through column AG. The user will indicate changes he makes to data by changing the color of that data to red, and I need to test for any record where the contents of any cells have been changed to red. I could enter 33 corresponding if(IsRed) formulas in cells AJ through BP, but at 33 such formulas per record times 500 records, that's a lot of formulas! Is there a way to use if(IsRed) on an array of cells? The following obviously doesn't work, but it illustrates what I'm trying to accomplish: in cell AJ2 =if(IsRed(A2:AG2),1,0) Many thanks, Paul |
