Hello, I have an audit program that shows me differences between two excel files. It highlights the differences depending on what the difference relates to. I then later need to figure out the amount of changes on the target file (which i already had help accomplishing) per row and then import the changes only into our system. What i am hoping to have help doing is clearing, not deleting, any cell in a range (ending at the last line of data) that is not highlighted. Ultimately, it'd be awesome to be able to tell the code what the "key" columns are, since they wouldn't all be highlighted and clear anything outside those columns but i'd right now settle for selecting all the columns outside of the keys manually at this point as it's been all manual. Below is a sample of a file. Thank you!

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
I thought this might do the trick but i am getting a run-time error with Object Required on the Interior.Color line.

VBA Code:
Sub Clear()
    Dim rng As Range
    For Each rng In Selection
    If Cell.Interior.Color = 0 Then
        Cell.ClearContents
    End If
Next
End Sub
