I have the code below that when data matches in C then it colours the row then does the same again on next rows in C and so on then starts again with the colouring. Could the colours be changed please as some are too bright on some. So instead of the vb array what needs changing so it uses .Interior.ColorIndex = 3 or 6 for example on each colour? Thanks



Code:
Sub ColourTheRows()
    ' This colours in the rows that have the same value in column c
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim colors As Variant, SameData As String, i As Long, j As Integer
    colors = Array(vbRed, vbGreen, vbYellow, vbBlue, vbWhite, vbMagenta, vbCyan)
    SameData = Cells(1, 3)
    For i = 1 To Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row
        If Cells(i, 3) <> SameData Then
            j = j + 1
            SameData = Cells(i, 3)
        End If
        If j = 7 Then
            j = 0
        End If
        Rows(i).Select
        With Selection.Interior
            .Pattern = xlSolid
            .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
            .Color = colors(j)
            .TintAndShade = 0
            .PatternTintAndShade = 0
        End With
    Next i
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

How about
VBA Code:
Sub ColourTheRows()
    ' This colours in the rows that have the same value in column c
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim colors As Variant, SameData As String, i As Long, j As Integer
    colors = Array(3, 6, 13, 35, 43, 19, 54)
    SameData = Cells(1, 3)
    For i = 1 To Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row
        If Cells(i, 3) <> SameData Then
            j = j + 1
            SameData = Cells(i, 3)
        End If
        If j = 7 Then
            j = 0
        End If
        Rows(i).Select
        With Selection.Interior
            .Pattern = xlSolid
            .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
            .ColorIndex = colors(j)
            .TintAndShade = 0
            .PatternTintAndShade = 0
        End With
    Next i
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Just change the numbers in the array to suit
