'&amp;H222222' isn't a Hex colour code. What colour are you after?

'&H222222' isn't a Hex colour code. What colour are you after?

<div>
You do not &quot;need&quot; to convert that value. The function only makes it more user-friendly to use HEX colour values. If you record a macro and change the colour you will see that it will work just fine with integer colour value.

Excel 2013 VBA  - How to use hex digits to color the interior of a cell.

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
