Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Since you already have a UDF for GetFillColor, you should be able to use:

W6=(GetFillColor(L6) = GetFillColor(Q6)) copied down and right.

*Are* they actually the same? If you put =GetFillColor(M6) in one cell and =GetFillColor(R6) in another cell, what does each return?

I’m guessing your GetFillColor UDF isn’t designed to return fill colors applied by conditional formatting and that the test from my previous post would return different values.

See Conditional Formatting Colors for a different UDF you could use to return the conditional format fill color for column L, which you could then compare against GetFillColor for column R.

Hi,

I have checked with all the VBA and didn't get cell color where i have a color with Cf. and getting same score.

Hi there,

You can't obtain the fill color from CF cells with a UDF.
You can however, color the cells with the same color given by the CF with a Sub, that way, your UDF will work.

Select the range with the CF colors and run the macro.

Here is the code:
VBA Code:
Sub FillCellWithCFColor()
Dim myRange As Range
Set myRange = Selection

Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In myRange
    cell.Interior.Color = cell.DisplayFormat.Interior.Color
Next cell

End Sub

You can delete CF after that, the colors will remain, this time, not conditional.

this actually *is* possible! See the method on Chip Pearson's webpage per the link in my previous post

One (maybe two) things will fix this for you:

1) Per the note at the top of Chip's page:

NOTE: ActiveCondition may result in an inaccurate result if the following are true:

  • You are calling ActiveCondtion from a worksheet cell, AND
  • The cell passed to ActiveCondtion uses a "Formula Is" rather than
    "Cell Value Is" condition, AND
  • The formula used in the condition formula contains relative addresses

As such, instead of having the conditional formatting rule be "Use a formula to determine which cells to format", use "Format only cells that contain". You can still link the values to AA1, AA2, and AA3 respectively, but this will circumvent the issue Chip explained, as I think your use case hits on all three of those.

2) Note that, if your GetFillColor returns the interior.colorindex (and not the interior.color), you'd use ColorIndexofCF instead of ColorofCF
