    problem coloring sheet tab based on a condition

    hey everyone

    i'm using this code below to color sheet tab if string "9.9999" found in column "A" on an excel sheet.

    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim wb As Workbook
    FoulTime = "99999"
    Dim rng As Range
    
    Set wb = ThisWorkbook
    For Each ws In wb.Worksheets
              
             ws.Columns("a:a").AutoFit
             
        Set rng = ws.UsedRange.Find(FoulTime)
            
            If rng Is Nothing Then
            ws.Tab.ColorIndex = 4
               
            Else
            ws.Tab.ColorIndex = 3
           
                  End If
                 
        Next ws
    recap: if "9.9999"found Color Tab = Red, if not Green.
    The problem is what if wanted the Color to become red if both strings "9.9999" OR/AND "0.0000" found?

    how do i do ?
    thanks in advance
    regards

    Hello mehdoush,

    You need to add another IF statement. This also checks if the cell is an empty string. The empty string is often considered to be a zero value.
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim wb As Workbook
    FoulTime = "99999"
    Dim rng As Range
    
    Set wb = ThisWorkbook
    For Each ws In wb.Worksheets
              
             ws.Columns("a:a").AutoFit
             
        Set rng = ws.UsedRange.Find(FoulTime)
            
            If rng Is Nothing Then
    
              ws.Tab.ColorIndex = 4
     
            Else
    
              If Rng.Value = "" Or Rng.Value = "0.0000" Then
                ws.Tab.ColorIndex = 3
              End If
    
            End If
                 
        Next ws
    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross

    Leith, sorry it didn't work properly

    i already defined a range

    FoulTime = "99999"
    Dim rng As Range
    Set rng = ws.UsedRange.Find(FoulTime)
    can i add this string "0.0000" to the range ?

    regards
