I have a column of cells that are set up with a pull down list for a new budget that I'm creating. The pull down list consists of four options of different accounts, and when an account is selected, a color fill is generated to identify that cell appropriately. I watched your video about using a macro to generate a code for the different colors used in a column and tried to generate the same thing. Unfortunately, when I run the Macro provided in your video, even though the colors in the cells are different, it generates the exact same code number in all of the cells coded. Do I have to manually apply color to all the cells or can I keep the conditional formatting and the pull down menus? Any help would be gratly appreciated. Thanks so much.
