    Thankyou for your input, I have already used this to get to where I am, I just need to only count what is coloured yellow with text in the cell

    Re: Count colour of cells and text

    Is there some logic to how the cells got the color they did - perhaps Conditional Formatting was used? If so, you could use that same logic in a COUNTIFS() function
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
