I am trying to figure out if there is a “VBA” way I can return a value from an “ADJACENT” formatting color cell.
All the place headers are adjacent to yesno headers.

Column K is a place value, column L is the formatting color values
Column N is a place value, column O is the formatting color values
Column Q is a place value, column R is the formatting color values
Column T is a place value, column U is the formatting color values

I’m looking for populate in sheet 2 the values on the place columns like this

This is an image of what I am trying to do:

I’m looking to populate in sheet 2 the values on the Label “place”, like this:

From Column K is a place value, column L is the formatting color values, I populate sheet2(“B2:G2”) with 1.10.11.17.30
Column N is a place value, column O is the formatting color values are populate (“B3:G3”) with 2.3.10.15.30 and so on

after I search in this forum for the word "adjacent", among the 210 post, I didn't found my case, but I saw like the concept in a code, again this is illustration ONLY

VBA Code:
Sub sh1_to_sh2()
Dim Cl As Range
For Each Cl In Range("K2", Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
If Cl.DisplayFormat.Interior.Color = vbYellow Then

Populate sheet 2(“B2:G2”)
Populate sheet 2(“B3:G3”)

Etc.etc.
End If
Next Cl
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

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.
How about
VBA Code:
Sub montecarlo()
   Dim Cl As Range
   Dim i As Long, j As Long, r As Long, c As Long
   
   i = 1
   j = 1
   With Sheets("Sheet1")
      For c = 11 To 29 Step 3
      j = j + 1
         For r = 1 To 31
            If .Cells(r, c + 1).Interior.ColorIndex <> xlNone Then
               i = i + 1
               Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(j, i) = .Cells(r, c)
            End If
         Next r
         i = 1
      Next c
   End With
End Sub

Fluff, Your are "REMARKABLE" thank you so much.

You're welcome & thanks for the feedback.
Just a little question. There are suggestion about how to ask, one of them is be short or specific, I understand the member has to build up a small example, have sense, but in this case I think I when so small.
for that reason when I plug in the code in the real workbook I got some differences, Do you mind if I load my diff, sorry.
I perfectly understand if this section is done, thank you Sir.

If you post your real data I will look at it.

Thank you Sir, for your Understanding.
first this is what I change in the code:
VBA Code:
Sub montecarlo()
   Dim Cl As Range
   Dim i As Long, j As Long, r As Long, c As Long
   
   i = 1
   j = 1
   With Sheets("Sheet1")
      For c = 14 To 309 Step 3
      j = j + 1
         For r = 2 To 310
            If .Cells(r, c + 1).Interior.ColorIndex <> xlNone Then
               i = i + 1
               Sheets("Sheet7").Cells(j, i) = .Cells(r, c)
            End If
         Next r
         i = 1
      Next c
   End With
End Sub

this is the answer I got on sheet7:
1598033498952.png

comparing with the original sheet1
1598033610280.png

on column N (or 14) the numbers to copy are 3-13-17-18-20-52, this is the vales to place on sheet7 B2:G2, next column Q (17) equal to 5-10-12-14-41-44.
would be like:
1598034061823.png

on sheet 7
Thank you Sir.

How are the cells being coloured?
 
Upvote 0
The cells are coloring by a code, or conditional formatting
VBA Code:
 With Selection.FormatConditions
    .Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=COUNTIF($B$" & i - 1 & ":$G$" & i - 1 & "," & c & "2)"
 
Upvote 0
In that case try
VBA Code:
            If .Cells(r, c + 1).DisplayFormat.Interior.ColorIndex <> xlNone Then
