Hi there,

Is there a way to sum a range of values according to the colour of the
value? e.g. sum all where colour = red, etc.

Thank you in advance,

Have a look here http://www.cpearson.com/excel/colors.htm

If you are new to VBA visit David McRitchie's site on "getting started" with
VBA

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm

If the colour result from conditional formatting (Format | Conditional
Formatting) you can use the same criteria to perform summations without VBA.

best wishes

Hi there,
Thank you for the information, but I actually need a formula to do this...
not VBA.
