Excel formula - select cells based upon fill color and then sum
There are no built in functions but there are other ways
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/colors.htm -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "mfrye " wrote in message ... I want to sum data baed upon the fill color. An existing spreadsheet has been manually shaded to show the "selected cells". I want to write a formula to look for a specific shading, find the specific color, and then add the cells that are shaded the correct color. Is this possible? I know there are formulas to select cells based upon text color but I can't seem to find a formula that selects cells based upon background color. --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |
