be great. Thanks.

Chip,

You need to use VBA functions to get the color of a cell. See
www.cpearson.com/excel/colors.htm for more details and example code.

It depends on how the cells became colored.
Conditional formatting=use the same criteria you used to color
non-CF - Yes
Now, please explain "extracted"
