print macro dependent on conditional format

[Guest]

i'm using conditional formatting to highlight when values reach beyond
accepted tolerances (i've got several columns in a sheet and near top of each
column is recommended tolerance. in cells directly below i've got values and
when a value is greater than tolerance the cell will change color ). i have
multiple sheets representing different projects, and a summary sheet which
lists each project. i want to print the summary each period and print a
project sheet
only when a value in it's grid is highlighted, i.e., there is tolerance issue.

is there a function, or VBA code, that can tell the
color of a cell, given that the color is determined by conditional format?

hi gord, appreciate the response. took a look at the site and have question
(i'm hoping you might know answer), can =ColorIndexofCF, or =ColorofCF be
applied to a range?

 

[Gord Dibben]

No. One cell only.

The countof and sumby take ranges.
