You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.

Write a macro to colour the dinosaurs by period:

  • Cretaceous ones will be red (set their Interior.Color property to RGB(200,100,100))
  • Jurassic ones will be green (set their Interior.Color property to RGB(100,200,100))
  • Triassic ones will be blue (set their Interior.Color property to RGB(100,100,200))

See below for what your final spreadsheet should look like.

Your final spreadsheet should look something like this after running your macro:
