    Counting colored cells

    Hello !

    Is there a way to count a cell depending in its color? I'm working with a basic scorecard (greens, yellows and reds) and I wolud like to score it automatically. Cells are using conditional format.

    Thanks ..!

    i dont think there is any formula in excel for counting colored cell values, however the same is possible if its done with the help of macro. please share the excel and i will try to solve your issue if you want it done with macro.

    Thank you so much..!
    The thing is that I forgot (I thought was not relevant) that cells are using conditional format and apparently it does not work becuase of that. I really appreciate your help...!

    Re: Counting colored cells

    if they are coloured because of conditional format use the same criteria to count by
