reading cells by name/definition
No, I passed it as a string to a range object.

sorry that I havent put up the whole code.
s is a string which gets a formula from a cell in xlsheet1 and copy it
to xlsheet2
this formula is a name which points to another cell, i am trying to get
the value of this last cell to copy also to xlsheet2
what bob wrote should work , but in my case i am passing it as a string
to range method whereas he passed it as a "Name" object.

OK, I see.
So what is the value of "s" ?
And you have a single cell named that on xlSheet1 ?

String s
s=xlsheet1.Range(Chr(71) & j).Formula
xlsheet2.Range(Chr(67) & 1).Value=s
xlsheet2.Range(Chr(68) & 1).Value=xlsheet1.Range(s).Value

the exception is thrown at the last line
System.Runtime.InterOpServices.COMException....... .
at Excel._Wroksheet.get_Range(Object Cell1, Object Cell2)

thanks for the reply bob. but for some reason it is not working
exception thrown refers to this method
excel.worksheet.getrange(object cell1, object cell2)
I am passing the cell name as string to the range method

It works, it must be your code somewhere.

i tried it and it generated an exception citing problems with
"getrange" method
just wish to know is it possible to access a cell content by
its
name?

Hello all,
just wish to know is it possible to read excel cells by
their
name
instead of cell reference.
i.e. instead of using xlsheet.range(A4).value, can i use
xlsheet.range("my_given_name").value
where A4 is named as my_given_name ?
