    Problems with a For Each loop

    I have the following code:

    This makes sense in my head, but it does not do anything. It runs without error, but it doesn't perform any actions.

    There are cell in the range of A3:A40 that contain the interior colorindex 34, but the macro does not copy them, and it doesn't seem to be looping through anything.

    For loop is fine, Your if statement is looking at selection. What did you select?

    Hmmm - I was thinking that as the loop went through A3:A40, it would go like this:

    1.) Select A3
    2.) As A3 is selected, look at the selection(a3).Interior.Colorindex
    3.) If it's 34, do stuff, if it's not, continue onto A4.
    4.) Select A4 & repeat steps 1 through 3.

    Should I not be using Selection.Interior.Colorindex? I've also tried with Activecell.Interior.Colorindex and this also does not work.

    Use the loop variable Cell.

    When VBA gets to this line:

    I get the following error:

    Run-time error '1004':

    Application-defined or object-defined error.

    It should be xlUp not xlUpDown.
