    Pulling out data based on font colour

    I have a large table of data, containing several rows and columns. Some of the data is "assumed", and to indicate this it appears in a red font colour. All "real" data is of black font colour.

    On a separate worksheet, I want to "pull out" all the assumed data. e.g. below (in this example, "assumed" data is shown in square brackets):

    Age Height (cm) Weight (kg)
    Jane 21 [89] 70
    Tom 37 [90] [60]
    Brian [45] 78 [72]
    Paul [25] [86] [80]

    So, on my second worksheet, it would display something along the lines of:

    Assumed data:

    Age Height (cm) Weight (kg)
    Jane 89
    Tom 90 60
    Brian 45 72
    Paul 25 86 80


    Is there any way of "pulling" data out in this way, i.e. based on font colour, perhaps using and IF statement?

    My home page contains a macro which sorts by colour - this might give you a way in.
