Hello Board members....after reading numerous posts...which are very helpful...struggling with trying to do the following.
In sheet 1, range A:A I would color yellow selected cells of 1472 rows...using XLendUp..as the row count can vary. When I color those selected cells, that have a numeric value, I would to find match cell.values, on sheet-2, range A:A...again using VBA of XLendup and color those cell interiors yellow as well, as there are 19727 rows on sheet-2. I have tried every variation of conditional formatting and it only will match / color the first value colored in say Sheet-1, A1 and so on. Thank You in Advance. Dave W.

Hello Mumps...trying again here to post the mini-sheets 1 & 2. Here I've selected sheet1 values coloring them Yellow. Running your helpful script..it seems it does pick up the first color selection of sheet1 (A2) but it does not pick up the additional selections in sheet1 A4 & A6, then all occurrences on sheet2 (the destination sheet). Also, I did add Option Explicit to your script as I need to pick up specific number values. The objective eventually is to go through sheet1 selecting cell values coloring them yellow and pick up all identical values coloring them yellow in sheet2. Thanks Kindly.

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
Try:
VBA Code: 
Sub ColorCells()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim srcWS As Worksheet, desWS As Worksheet, v1 As Variant, v2 As Variant, dic As Object, i As Long
    Set srcWS = Sheets("Sheet1")
    Set desWS = Sheets("Sheet2")
    v1 = srcWS.Range("A2", srcWS.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value
    v2 = desWS.Range("A2", desWS.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Resize(, 8).Value
    Set dic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    For i = LBound(v1) To UBound(v1)
        If srcWS.Cells(i + 1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Then
            If Not dic.exists(v1(i, 1)) Then
                dic.Add v1(i, 1), i + 1
            End If
        End If
    Next i
    For i = LBound(v2) To UBound(v2)
        If dic.exists(v2(i, 1)) Then
            desWS.Cells(i + 1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 6
            srcWS.Cells(dic(v2(i, 1)), 1).Interior.ColorIndex = 6
        End If
    Next i
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Good morning Mumps....I thank you abundantly....the final solution works BEAUTIFULLY. Sequential coloring of cells in the destination sheet as selected in the source sheet has done the job. I'm not sure how to say or post solution achieved but I thank you. Have a great day and thanks for the knowledge. DaveOMatic.
