Hello.

I am pretty new to macros and have only done extremely simple stuff up to this point. The macro I am looking to make/obtain would be based on this. Also to note, I am using (version 16.84). I think the correct term is also worksheet, but I call them tabs here.



Tab 1 (main page):

From A1 down to A_ (you can enter a new item and it would automatically search/find or a button would be needed) you would essentially have the item you were looking for and it would search between all the tabs, count up all of the cells that contain that item and are highlighted green or yellow (if the highlighting cannot be done, what is an alternate way to determine to is 'green', 'yellow', or nothing), and count the amount that contain green. So for example:



A5 = iPhone 10

B5 = 10

C5 = 3

The amount of cells that contain 'iPhone 10' between all of the tabs is 15, but only 7 are highlighted yellow and 3 are green. This would in turn add green and yellow highlighted cells with that item and add that in the 'B' column (in this example, 7+3=10). Then in the 'C' column it would only count the cells with that item that are green (in this case C5 = 3).



As mentioned, this is what it should look like in the end:

I A I B I C I

4 iPhone 9 11 8 (20 total cells, 8 are highlighted green, 3 are highlighted yellow)

5 iPhone X 5 4

6 iPhone 11 25 11

Hopefully this all makes sense. If you have any question please ask! Thank you very much!

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I really hope this is what you wanted. In my sheet I created a named range for Cell A1 called "ItemHdr". I tested it on my end.

    Y = Y + 1

Set ItemHdr = tSht.Range("ItemHdr")
Thank you for the help/reply.

When trying this, it gave me the error of "Run-time error '1004': Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet" before even doing anything. I tried a few small troubleshooting things to replicate your Excel sheet, but it still did not work on my behalf. Any ideas?

This part of the macro sets the range, but it mean you have to be on the sheet with the named range. I can't see whats happening on your end, so I have to ask.

Set tSht = ActiveSheet
