Jim,

Yes ... for example ...

Range("A1:A10").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Application.CutCopyMode = False
' this names the range from the copy/pastespecial i.e. A1:A10 to "MyName"
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="MyName",
RefersToR1C1:="=Sheet1!R1C1:R10C1"
