There are some strings that can't be used for names--things that look like
addresses of ranges. There are characters that are invalid in names, so they
can't be used.

Your name looks like a cell address. Excel won't allow it to be used.

Hi Dave,

Can you please elaborate on your reply.

xl2007 has 16k columns.

That means that names that worked ok in xl2003 and below may look like addresses
of cells in xl2007 (IV isn't the last column anymore).

You'll have to change the name.

And excel won't change your code--you'll have to do that yourself. That's what
the warning means.

And excel won't change any formulas that use that name as text:
=indirect("rev02")
won't get fixed automatically.

Hi,

While converting the Macros enabled Microsoft Excel 2003 to Microsoft Excel
2007 format, I am getting the following Conflict with Valid Range Reference
Error. After clicking on the Ok\OK to All buttons the VBA code in the Excel
is not working as it is expected to.

The following is the Error message.

"The name, rev02, either conflicts with a valid range reference or is
invalid for excel. The name has been replaced with _rev02.

You may still need to manually update any references to this name used in
VBA code or as text arguments in functions. You must close and reopen the
workbook before these changes take effect."

and prompting for Ok\OK to All button.

Please pass on any pointers for resolving this issue.
