Here is a little script which can be found on the interweb in quite some different forms, but it’s just easy to have it here.
I used to make a lot of Excel based auto reporting scripts in VBScript, which for example gave an overview of the SCCM server status, the installed applications on a client and more. To give these reports a good read, I used cell and font colors to brighten things up. This ‘script’ gives a quick overview of which color code / ColorIndex gives which color as an output if used in VBScript.
If you want to know more about the ColorIndex class, please check these informative posts by Microsoft and Databison:
