Is it possible to sort by cell color format or text color format? I tried to
gather info by CELL but it always returns G .
 
Thanks for the code but it seems to only work with cell formatting- not text
formatting (font color) and I have a lot more of that.
 
Look at the second argument of the ColorIndex function

Kind regards,

One follow-up. I can only seem to call the function if it's created in a
module within my current workbook. How can I create the function so it's
accessible each time I create a new workbook? I tried posting it in the
personal workbook, but if it's in there I can't call it (get the #NAME? error)

When using a UDF from Personal.xls you must preface it with the filename.

=Personal.xls!Function()

I prefer to place UDF's in an add-in.

No filename required

=Function() is sufficient.
