I have a workbook with multiple worksheets, the worksheets are structured
identical to each other. I need to name certain ranges in each of the
worksheets. On the first worksheet, I was able to name the ranges without
difficulity, however when I attempt to name the ranges on the worksheet
number 2, it throws me back to sheet 1. The range name that I entered on
sheet 2 was not accepted, the name box is still showing the cell number. Can
anyone assist?

Using Excel 2003.

Thanks,
