    Result based on shading of adjacent cell

    Hi,

    I would like to create an IF function that will return the word "Apple" if the adjacent cell is shaded a certain colour.

    Is this possible? If so, could someone please suggest a solution.

    Thanks very much!

    Hello
    My suggestion is to create your own function, something like :

    Then use the =IF(test(),"apple","") in the adjacent cell.
