Excel doesn't like "data" as a named range.

This will work...........

Sub test()
If Range("myname") = "000" Then
MsgBox "hello"
End If
End Sub

Or this construct..............

Set r = Range("myname")
If r.Cells = "000" Then
MsgBox "hello"
End If

i have a line of VBA code that asks if cell O1 is "000" then yada yada yada.
It looks like this:

If Cells(1, 15) = "000" Then

But if i insert a column somewhere to the left of column O, my code still
refers to cell O1 but needs to now refer to cell P1.

I've named the cell "data" and i tried
If Cells("data")="000" Then
but that didnt' work.
any other suggestions?
