    Combining the results of two coloured cells into one

    Hi Everyone,

    Thanks in advance for anyone that reads this and tries to help!!!!

    What im looking for, if possible, is to be able to be to sum the total of two columns, with two different colours into one column. In the attached example. 21C, appears in a white, peach and red colour. I already have a macro that lists the colour to the right that i reference. But now im trying to combine the totals of anything in peach Colour 8696052 + anything in white color 16777215 into one cell, minus the sum of -SUM(BX155,CD155,CG155)

    =COUNTIFS($Z$25:$Z$151,BV155,$AB$24:$AB$150,8696052,$AB$24:$AB$150,16777215)-SUM(BX155,CD155,CG155) - this is the current formula im trying but not working


    Hopefully my explanation makes sense, again thanks in advance to anyone that can help with this!!!

    Administrative Note:

    We would very much like to help you with your query, however the thread title does not really convey what your request is about. Tell us what you are trying to do, not how you think it should be done.

    Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).

    Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.

    (Note: this change is not optional. I have done it for you this once.)
