Copy Cells By Chosen Background Color

Feb 28, 2008

I am using the following code to copy all rows that have a cell with a background color to another worksheet. In my first workbook this works just fine. In my new workbook, however; it is not working correctly. There are 111 rows that have a cell with a background color (all the same color). When I run the macro it is only copying the last row that has a colored cell. I have been trying to figure out the reason for the last 3 hours and I give up.

Sub CopyColor2()
Dim rReply As Range, rCell As Range
Dim lCol As Long

Set rReply = Application.InputBox _
(Prompt:="Selct a single cell that has the background color you wish to copy", Type:=8)

Change Matched Cells Background Color

Mar 7, 2014

Macro is not working .So the macro I am using is supposed to look back at all the months tab, match the Name from previous tabs and if they match change background color of the active sheet's cell to red.

Right now the macro is only able to lookup the name in the previous tab (i.e. For December it will only lookup November tab and not October-January).

e.g. (Candidate name is Jack King and he is in (october's tab, Column A Cell 2 )

I want this candidate name to turn red once I type his name in November/December tab.

I have pasted the code I am using below:

Macro To Change Background Color And Text Of Certain Cells On Mouseclick

Mar 15, 2013

creating a macro. I would like the background color of certain cells under column A (cells 12:25, 27:32, 34:38, 40:45, 47:51, 53:61, 63:70, 72:79, 81:88, 90:92) to change to the color green and display the text "Complete" on mouseclick.

Before the cell is clicked, it would be the color red, with no text. (I'm not sure if you need to know that).

Next, I would need a macro that resets everything back to red. I hope this macro could be assigned to a form button.

Correct Syntax For Function To Find Average Based On Background Color Of Cells In Range

May 20, 2014

I'm working on a workbook that will track staffing patterns.

The workbook has three worksheets: Sheet1 "RCS", Sheet2 "HCT' and Sheet3 "Hidden". I've attached the workbook to this thread. The password for the form is "j".

On Sheet3 "Hidden" I have two tables that are set up to collect the SUM of columns on Sheets1 "RCS" and Sheet2 "HCT". I'm finding the SUM of each range by way of the background color. I've set up the following formulas and when the "data collection tables" are in the same worksheets as the original information, the formula's work perfectly:

The following functions are pulling data from Sheet1 "RCS" and placing them into a table in Sheet2 "Hidden"

[Code] ........

The following functions are pulling data from Sheet1 "RCS" and placing them into a table in Sheet2 "Hidden"

[Code] .......

I have two more functions that aren't working due to the fact that the source values are percentages and NOT plain numbers. The above functions work great for SUM but not for percentages. EXAMPLE--Let's say, 3 sub percentages it gives me the SUM of the 3 percentages (i.e. 85% + 100% + 100% = 285% instead of giving me 95%.

[Code] ........

How might I use the following functions to find the average of the source fields instead of the SUM?

Count By Font Color & Background Color

Dec 12, 2007

In excel 2000, I am trying to count the lines in a spreadsheet that has the first cell in each row highlighed in yellow. Additionally, I am trying to count the number of rows that has a red font used in the cell in column D.

I have reviewed other posts by searching counting highlighted cells, but I do not understand how to complete the entire process. One of the suggestion was to create a vb script in combination with using =cellindex(??). I do not really understand how to create this, name it and the run it.

Try to find a way to automatically change the color of a row, based in changing the name in column A.

I tried conditional formatting but the name (or dates) in column A are not the same (always other and other).

Change Background Color Of Every Second Row?

Jul 30, 2014

I have a given som (general) range where I would like a function to change the background color of every second row in a visual basic function.

One could of course just loop through it and use the mod function, but I think there has to be something quicker.

I know about conditional formatting, but it is something I need to use over and over again on Ranges that will differ in size so I would like it to be a function I can just run as part of a sub.

Add Background Color Dropdown?

Jan 24, 2013

There is a color i like to use alot for shading cell background, and i'd like to add it to the background color dropdown. Now, i get to it by clicking "more colors" and then selecting it from that dialog. This is a lighter shade of yellow. I swear it used to be on the dropdown, but i believe it was removed at some excel version, so now its more of a hassle for me to get to it. Is this customization possible? In the macro recorder, it comes out as .Color = 10092543. Now, it will occasionally show up for a while under "recent colors" but then that will go away after a while.

Return Value Based On Background Color

Mar 11, 2014

I've got a problem to write macro. I need users to color code background (manual not conditional formatting) depending of progress in projects. Then range L6:N10 will automatically return value (from range E5:I5) based on background color.

Users got very basic excel skills and their work will limit to manual background change.

I need something like INDEX MATCH based on colorindex.

Setting Background Fill Color In VBA

Aug 4, 2009

I'm admittedly a novice in VBA but I'm trying to simply settnig the background color of the active cell. I've seen various snippets on the web that reference this via setting the color.index variable, using the RGB codes, etc. but nothing seems to work. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. I know from tracing thru that the assignment instruction is being executed. I've tried using Selection.blah instead of ActiveCell, etc. also.

Select Case Total_Points
Case Is >= 70
ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = vbGreen 'Green
ActiveCell.Interior.Pattern = 1 'xlSolid
ActiveCell.Interior.PatternColorIndex = -4105 'xlAutomatic
Client_Type = "Elite Partner (" & Round(Total_Points) & ")"

Background Color In Column Chart

Dec 22, 2009

I have a column chart that goes 0-100%. The back wall is red from 0-60%, yellow from 60-80%, and green from 80-100%.

To do this, I shaded some blank cells to the same proportional shape, did a screen capture, saved that image as a file, then imported it back in as the background.

Problem is, those color breakpoints (60%,80%) may change, and that process is a pain. Is there an easier way to do this such that if I change the values the background will change automatically based on the shading of some cells?

Return Background Color Of Cell

Oct 6, 2006

On one worksheet I have a list of colours in cells. I want to be able to look in the list the list and return the background colour of that cell. The function i am using is:

=CELLCOLORINDEX('1.1'!$C28,FALSE)

'1.1' is the worksheet name, $C28 is the cell (coloured blue)

It seems to work because I am getting the correct background colour in the new worksheet, however it also returns the number(37) as well.

I just want the background colour to be shown only, not the color's number as well.

Function CellColorIndex(InRange As Range, Optional _
OfText As Boolean = False) As Integer
'
' This function returns the ColorIndex value of a the Interior
' (background) of a cell, or, if OfText is true, of the Font in the cell.
'
Application.Volatile True
If OfText = True Then
CellColorIndex = InRange(1, 1).Font.ColorIndex
Else
CellColorIndex = InRange(1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex
End If
End Function
