Excel Data Ranges Columns
Hi
Has anyone seen a problem whereby the addition of a new column heading beside an existing data range does not cause the range to be extended to include this column. The selection to "extend rows and columns" is turned on. Is there some similar option dealing with data ranges, different from excel ranges? Thanks in Advance -- Richard from Dublin |

Excel Data Ranges Columns
hi
what version xl are you using? 2003 here. are we talking about named ranges? if so, adding a column (or row) next to a named range doesn't automaticly extend the the named range. only when the column (or row) is added within the named range will the named range be extended. if added outside the named range, i think you will just have to rename/redefine. post back if i misunderstood.

Excel Data Ranges Columns
Hi
Thanks, but no. Version is 2007. I am not talking about a directly named range. This is where the range referring to the external data, automatically called something like "TableExternalData1", is extended to include the new column. This then makes available the "[" functionality etc allowing one to specify the named columns rather than the range address for formulae. It is frustrating as it continues to work on my own machine but has stopped working on a colleagues machine and we are trying to figure out how to turn it back on for her machine.
