From the On-line help I would have expected ["my_rng"](5) to work, but
it doesn't either.

Still, I don't know why you would use anything besides

Range("my_rng")(5)

Assume a named range "my_rng"

One can say: Range("my_rng")(5)
One can say : [my_rng].cells(5)
One can say: Evaluate("my_rng")(5)
But one cannot say: [my_rng](5)

Why is that?
