if thats not clear enough let me know, but it's very easy to do.

opps miss read your OP, you want cells below to be colored as well... that would take a macro.

A quick and dirty would be to organize vendors by sheet, and have sheet one be an aggregate of all vendors
Macro, eh? /shudders

Of course she could. I should clarify. It's not a matter of finding the information. There are a myriad of ways for her to find the information, this is more about how she wants it formatted. It seems to be a matter of aesthetics rather than actual function.

I know...it's really, really stupid.

Thanks anyway
