Hi,

I want to find a text which is in Red Color. How can I do that? Is it possible?


Thanks,

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
You can run a macro something like below. If you are looking to check for a specific range than you can restrict the search further. Also this will give a message for each instance that it finds. You could just stop at the first instance and select the cell

Code:
Sub CheckForRed()
    Dim myCell As Range

    For Each myCell In Sheets("try").UsedRange   'change for your sheet name
        If myCell.Font.ColorIndex = 3 Then
        
            MsgBox "range " & myCell.Address & " has red text"
        End If
    
    Next myCell
'
    
End Sub
