I'll explain myself better. I know how to name ranges. But that's only when
you want to name for e.g. range a1:a100 then you write that and you name the
range. This is a simple range. You can also name a range for cell: A1 and C3
and F5 and so on different cells on the page by selecting it with the ctrl
button and then naming the range. But my question is how to name such a range
without actually selecting the cells with the mouse. I want to name the range
with just tyoing the range. But hoe do you type A1 and C3 And F5 and so on?
Please help.

I'm not really sure what sort of further facilitation you're looking for,
since you know about the name box (from your subject line).

Perhaps this? You can easily create it with one fell swoop if you name the
ranges using the top col labels via Insert Name Create. Eg with col
labels in A1:E1, you could select the entire range, eg A1:E100, then click
Insert Name Create, ensure only "Top row" is checked, then click OK.

the range is there a way to do it? Otherwise it would take me very long to
select all the cells I need. Please help.
