Default Lookup data

Assume MyR is a defined range (eg a 3C x 3R range)
In any other sheet,
Suppose A1 will house the defined name: MyR
Select an equivalent size range, say B1:D3 (with B1 active), paste into the
formula bar, then array-enter by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the
formula:
=IF(A1="","",INDIRECT(A1))
