I have a list of times with sum being green (good) and some being red(bad). I need to total just the red ones to get the total time. I keep getting a name error and I cant figure out why?

There is no SUMBYCOLOUR function in Excel - you need a UDF, and there is no UDF defined in the workbook.
I am moving this to the VBA section for you.

Hi Chris,
Since you have criteria to color a cell in column M either Red or Green, use that same criteria to Sum. No need for a UDF or VBA.
Green >> R11 =SUMIFS(M3:M19,M3:M19,">0",M3:M19,"<0.00694444444444444")
Red >> R12 =SUM(M3:M19)-R11
HTH

I have the module populated with the UDF but it is still not working.
That code cannot detect cells coloured by CF.
Why not use the formulae suggested by Jeff? It's a lot easier.
And it will never work because the interior color of cell R11 is not the same as the interior color of the "Red" colored cells in Column M.
Column M is "Red" or "Green" thru conditional formatting. The color is not the same.
For your testing, put some numbers in T7:T9. Now in T11 >> =sumbycolor(R11,T7:T9)
Why not use the formulas I posted?
the criteria is going to change. I thought I could do (conditional formatting based on the value of another cell) AND using color would be the easiest way. how can I make your formula point to a cell to get the criteria rather than listing the criteria in the formula and having to always change it?
Try
=SUMIFS(M3:M19,M3:M19,">"&A1,M3:M19,"<"&A2)
