Set nms = ActiveWorkbook.Names
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
With ws
b = False
On Error Resume Next
b = Val(.Name) = .Name
On Error GoTo 0
If b Then
nms.Add "w" & .Name & "s", .Range("A:C")
nms.Add "w" & .Name & "c", .Range("D:F")
End If
End With
Next

End Sub

If you were to use Worksheet level names, also known as Local names, each
sheet could have identically named Names, eg "ws" & "wc"

Hi Folks,

I'm have 52 sheets named 1,2,3,etc., that I want to create named ranges on
in the following fashion...

sheet 1 (named "1") has A:C named w1s
sheet 1 (named "1") has D:F named w1c

sheet 2 (named "2") has A:C named w2s
sheet 2 (named "2") has D:F named w2c

... all the way down the line.

Is there a simple way to slap together a one-time use macro so I don't

have
t odo this all manually?

Thanks in Advance!
