Count cell by colour

[Saif00]

I am trying to count the total number of cells that have a particular colour. I have attached the sheet in question and need values under "Total" for the particular colours.

Thanks

Detecting colours is only possible by VBA, unless the cell's colours are set by Condtional Formatting, in which case just use the same condtions.
