Hi,

I've been using the following.... however it soes not auto update if I change a cell colour. Any advice would be most appreciated please! Many thanks.

Function SumByColor(CellColor As Range, rRange As Range)
Dim cSum As Long
Dim ColIndex As Integer
ColIndex = CellColor.Interior.ColorIndex
For Each cl In rRange
If cl.Interior.ColorIndex = ColIndex Then
cSum = WorksheetFunction.Sum(cl, cSum)
End If
Next cl
SumByColor = cSum
End Function

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Changing a colour-fill manually does not trigger any event in the worksheet
{F9} forces sheet recalculation and will update the formula

Hi - I'm having the same issue with my Sumbycolor function below, when I change cell color, it does not update, any help with this would be much appreciated :)

Function sumbycolor(CellColor As Range, rRange As Range)
Dim cSum As Double
Dim ColIndex As Integer

Application.Volatile
ColIndex = CellColor.Interior.ColorIndex
For Each cl In rRange
If cl.Interior.ColorIndex = ColIndex Then
cSum = WorksheetFunction.Sum(cl, cSum)
End If
Next cl
sumbycolor = cSum

End Function
