    Change colour of cells based on another cell's colour (Not value)

    Hello,

    I want to be able to change one cell to any colour and then have several cells throughout change to the same colour. I don't want this to effect the data I'm able to enter.

    This is, I want to be able to fll B4 with any colour and then have B7 and B10 to change to the same colour.

    Any help is appreciated.

    You have to use VBA to do this.

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Sorry, I don't know what VBA is exactly. I googled it and got 'Visual Basics Applications' but still doesn't help.

    I know what I would do if this spreadsheet was just for me, I would just change the colours manually as needed, but I plan to give this to others who can't be as bothered.

    I want to make it as simple as possible.

    I dont want to target one colour only. I want ot be able to choose any colour at any point and have the others change themselves.
