Applying Named Ranges to Existing Formulas
I've searched evrywhere for help on this issue but can't seem to get a clear
position. I have a large workbook with thousands of formulas spread across 20+ worksheets. All of these formulae make extensive use of standard assumptions contained on one particular sheet. I would like to apply names to these assumptions (constants) and have the existing formulas use the new name references instead of the absolute cell references that they currently have. It would make reading and following the formulae much easier. I have defined the names but when I try and apply them excel keeps telling me tat it can't find any references to change. Its almost as if the named ranges will only apply to the sheet that they are on - not the whole workbook. The names are defined as workbook in the name scope. Is there something I'm doing wrong - it seems mad that if you name a cell after a formula is written on another worksheet that Excel will not replace the absolute refernce with the named range! Thanks in advance |
