This suggestion
Range("Update_File_Name1").Value
I believe will only work if the workbook containing that named range is the
activeworkook.

It appears the worksheet containing the named range would also have to be
qualified if the named range is in a workbook that is not active:
Workbooks(current).Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("UpD ate_File_Name1").Value

The RefersToRange may be a safer bet.

Perhaps

I am trying to access the value in a single cell that is a named range.

Code:

If Workbooks(Current).Names("UpDate_File_Name1").Valu e = "Save to" then
....

When I debug the .Value I get the cell address not the cell value; in
this case:

=Setup!$C$3 instead of "Save to" which is the value in the cell.

I can do:

If Activeworkbook.Worksheets("Setup").cells(3,3).valu e = "Save to"
then...

or

If Workbooks(Current).Worksheets("Setup").Cells(3, 3).Value = "Save to"
then...

and get the Value to be: "Save to"

I would like to use Named ranges in the VBA code.
