    Count cell by colour

    I want to count cell by color.

    Me and my back to working rotations and I have a excel sheet for the whole year working days marked in different color. I want to count how many days we worked (marked) counting by color. I need a simple countif formula, if possible.

    Regular excel formulas cannot count color. Color is formatting, not data

    Having said that, is there some logic to how the colors were applied? perhaps we can base the count off that, and not the color?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
