select, copy and past all cells with specific colour

[pswanie]

i need to do either one of two things...

i got about 200 cells that i need to copy and paste (from column n to c).
this is a part of the recorded macro
but the list continue to about "N380"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Range("N5,N8,N11,N14,N17,N20,N23,N26,N29,N32,N35").Select
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

after i copy those i need to paste it to column a (thats the closing stock
and it needs to cary over to the opening stock column.

************************************************************
1. can i select all cells with yellow colour and paste programaticly?

2. should i make that a range? (i did not do ranges before. any
help/sugestions?)
************************************************************

i also need to clear a set of cells. will colour that pruple or name that
aswell.

NewRowCount = 1
Lastrow = Range("N" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For RowCount = 1 To Lastrow
If Range("N" & RowCount).Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Then
Range("A" & NewRowCount) = Range("N" & RowCount)
NewRowCount = NewRowCount + 1
End If
Next RowCount

You don't always have to do a copy, an equal sign will do the equivalent. I
get my color indxes by going to record a macro and then picking a color and
filling in a cell.. I haven't found a good place that lists all the colors.

i did record what colour im using. number 8

then i took a button from the forms toolbar. right click and asign macro.

but clicking the button does nothing....



************************************************************
this is what i got in there

Sub Button1_Click()
NewRowCount = 1
Lastrow = Range("N" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For RowCount = 1 To Lastrow
If Range("N" & RowCount).Interior.ColorIndex = 8 Then
Range("A" & NewRowCount) = Range("N" & RowCount)
NewRowCount = NewRowCount + 1
End If
Next RowCount
End Sub

color index 8 is a light blue. I doubled check the code and everything look
ok. I would put a breakpoint in the code using F9, and then activate yor
button. When the code gets to the break point then step through the code
with F8.

interior colors listed in the helpfile - PatternColorIndex Property?

 

[pswanie]

jip... light blue. and not column a but c

each of these cells are light blue

N5,N8,N11,N14,N17,N20,N23,N26,N29,N32,N35... ...N380

and they need be paste in
