Cell attributes

Each cell in the worksheet can be blank or have some content (text, number). It can also have its own formatting elements. The CELL function allows you to read the attributes of a cell, however it is not nearly as powerful as the old GET.CELL macro function. In the following text, you will learn how to read cell attributes.

Counting by color

When creating tables, we often use our own markup, e.g. change the cell background color of the data we want to indicate in some way. How to automatically count them later? If we applied a filter or these cells are within a structured table, it is enough to filter the table by color, so that we can use SUBTOTAL function to find out how many cells are colored in a certain way. Can this also be done using COUNTIF?
