I have a list of names on a worksheet. Each name can be in one of two
statuses, indicated on the sheet by cell color. I am keeping track of the total number of each type by using the ColorIndex function I found at http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.ColourCounter.html. However, I also want to be able to create a new list that contains ONLY the names of one particular status and will change as the original list changes. I would like this list to be formatted "nicely". In other words, I know I could just create a whole bunch of lines like =IF(ColorIndex(D6)="6",D6,""), but that would leave a bunch of blank lines. Example: A B C D E 1 Name Total1 Total2 2 John 3 2 3 Sarah 4 Jim 5 Steven 6 Bill Assuming that A2, A4 and A6 were all the same cell color (shown under Total1), I would like to create this a list in F: A B C D E F 1 Name Total1 Total2 John 2 John 3 2 Jim 3 Sarah Bill 4 Jim 5 Steven 6 Bill As the status (color) of the fields in A changed, the list in F would change. I am assuming that VB would be necessary for this...any suggestions? |
