I would like to make any cell on a worksheet that is a number (no matter what the value) a certain color. And on that same spreadsheet I would like to identify all cells that are formatted yellow and change them to another color. Thanks as always for your timely and accurate responses.
 
Hi
for the first one try the folowing
- select your cells (assumption you start this range in A1)
- goto 'Format - Conditional format'
- enter the fomurla
=ISNUMBER(A1)
- choose your cell format

For the second one try the following macro (changes all yellow cells to
red)

Sub change_yellow_color()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim cell As Range

If Selection.Rows.Count > 1 Then
Set Rng = Selection
Else
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
Rng.Select
End If
For Each cell In Rng
If cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Then
cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I see you use only the "Application.ScreenUpdating = True" without the
Application.ScreenUpdating = False Preceding it ever.. Can you comment
to clear my "?";
Thks,
