    VLOOKUP - copy over the color of the looked up cell?

    Hi All

    Using VLOOKUP and it's great. However, I would like to also copy over the looked-up cell's COLOR in addition to just the number there.

    What would i need to add to this formula?

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(a2, statsjan2010!$A$1:$C$11740, 2, FALSE), "0")


    Thanks!

    You would need to use VBA - unless the format required can be determined by the actual value resulting from the formula (ie result of VLOOKUP is 2, 2 means "red" etc...) ... if that is the case you can use Conditional Formatting based on the result.
