We achieve this with a simple Excel VBA function. The VBA function has two arguments. One is for color and the other the range that needs to be summed. You can use a similar technique to count cells based on color.

We also improve on the VBA code to have the formula results update automatically when a cell color in the range changes. This is done by using the worksheet selection change event for a specific range. We achieve this with the Application.Intersect method.

What You'll Learn:
- Crafting a custom VBA function for summing values by cell color.
- Simplified approach to VBA programming with hands-on examples.
- How to implement dynamic cell color selection in your custom function.

️ Custom Function Features:
- Ability to sum values based on specified cell background color.
- Two argument implementation: target cell color and range for summing.
- Step-by-step guide to creating and integrating the function in Excel.

Key Takeaways:
- Enhance your Excel projects with dynamic, color-based calculations.
- Gain practical knowledge in VBA, making your data analysis more efficient.
- Discover how to tailor Excel functions to your specific needs.
