    Color-code a cell based on another cell using For-each

    Hello,

    Need help after searching then 'net. I'm writing some VBA code for Excel. I need to change the color of a cell based upon the data in another cell. This selects sheet "Kane", and searches for the word "Expenses" in a range in column D. Using For-Each, I need the IF statement that will change the cell color in the same row, but in column P.

    But why don't you just use Conditional Formatting?
