Oct 12, 2017How to count and sum "Condtional formatting" cells by color in Excel 2010?

I came across this post being unanswered. so here is a User Defined Function in VBA
to SUM
use this UDF
Function SumConditionColorCells(CellsRange As Range, ColorRng As Range) Dim Bambo As Boolean Dim dbw As String Dim CFCELL As Range Dim CF1 As Single Dim CF2 As Double Dim CF3 As Long Bambo = False For CF1 = 1 To CellsRange.FormatConditions.Count If CellsRange.FormatConditions(CF1).Interior.ColorIndex = ColorRng.Interior.ColorIndex Then Bambo = True Exit For End If Next CF1 CF2 = 0 CF3 = 0 If Bambo = True Then For Each CFCELL In CellsRange dbw = CFCELL.FormatConditions(CF1).Formula1 dbw = Application.ConvertFormula(dbw, xlA1, xlR1C1) dbw = Application.ConvertFormula(dbw, xlR1C1, xlA1, , ActiveCell.Resize(CellsRange.Rows.Count, CellsRange.Columns.Count).Cells(CF3 + 1)) If Evaluate(dbw) = True Then CF2 = CF2 + CFCELL.Value CF3 = CF3 + 1 Next CFCELL Else SumConditionColorCells = "NO-COLOR" Exit Function End If SumConditionColorCells = CF2 End Function
if you want to Count instead of SUM then use the below UDF
Function COUNTConditionColorCells(CellsRange As Range, ColorRng As Range) Dim Bambo As Boolean Dim dbw As String Dim CFCELL As Range Dim CF1 As Single Dim CF2 As Double Dim CF3 As Long Bambo = False For CF1 = 1 To CellsRange.FormatConditions.Count If CellsRange.FormatConditions(CF1).Interior.ColorIndex = ColorRng.Interior.ColorIndex Then Bambo = True Exit For End If Next CF1 CF2 = 0 CF3 = 0 If Bambo = True Then For Each CFCELL In CellsRange dbw = CFCELL.FormatConditions(CF1).Formula1 dbw = Application.ConvertFormula(dbw, xlA1, xlR1C1) dbw = Application.ConvertFormula(dbw, xlR1C1, xlA1, , ActiveCell.Resize(CellsRange.Rows.Count, CellsRange.Columns.Count).Cells(CF3 + 1)) If Evaluate(dbw) = True Then CF2 = CF2 + 1 CF3 = CF3 + 1 Next CFCELL Else COUNTConditionColorCells = "NO-COLOR" Exit Function End If COUNTConditionColorCells = CF2 End Function
these solutions were provided to the similar question asked by other Excel users and worked for them.

Hi Jamil,
The workbook is set to automatic. Do you have any other ideas?

Hi Sonia,
Plz check if you have a personal excel file in the Excel start up folder. Also, check if you have any Excel Add-ins enabled.
If the above-mentioned did not work. then place this code below into sheet module not in a regular module.
You can change the range A2:Z100 to the actual range where your formulas are placed.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Me.Range("A2:Z100").Calculate
End Sub
