Hi,

I have the following code:

Code:
Sub Error_Hide()
    
    Dim C As Range
        
    For Each C In Selection
        
        If IsError(C.Value) Then
            C.Font.ColorIndex = C.Interior.ColorIndex
        End If
        
    Next C
    
End Sub

This works as long as I have an interior color applied, but unable to set the font property if none has beeen assigned. Could somebody suggest a fix please?

Cheers,
Jon
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
