Help Please - Formula to total cells with Red Coloured text? or to count the cell colour

Hello All

I wonder if anyone can help me with keeping a continuous total (i.e. updates when Sheet is updated)?

I'd like to keep a running total of cells or cell content with a given colour if possible?

    I advise you not to use coloring to indicate anything you would like to do calculations with later, instead, just add column in which you add status information (yes, no, Male, Female, Overdue or not, ...). Having done so you can easily use Excel's built-in functions such as SUMIFS or COUNTIFS.
