Color Index Code, is there any thing like that?
I have a question regarding the color in Excel. In normal time, if I want
the negative number shown in Red color, then I will formate a cell with【#, ##0;[Red] (#,##0)】. My question is that what happen if I want some other color apart from the mainstream color (e.g black, green etc), how can I easily formate it? What I mean is there any special color index code which I can fill to the Excel formula, instead of just put [Red]. Many thanks, Wilchong -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |

Try
# ##0;[Color n] (#,##0) Where n is the number of a colour in the Excel colour palette (1 - 56) Mike "wilchong via OfficeKB.com" wrote: I have a question regarding the color in Excel.

I think you can have the primary colours, red, green, blue, yellow as well
as black and white, but none of the others. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "wilchong via OfficeKB.com" <u43231@uwe wrote in message news:848508d51a33a@uwe...

Using Conditional Formatting will allow a greater range of colors:
Format Conditional Formatting... Value is less than 0 Format Font Color and pick your color -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007i "wilchong via OfficeKB.com" wrote: I have a question regarding the color in Excel.
