range name does not appear name box?
Hi All,
The code snippet below is how l have added a named range to my workbook. The variables are defined via a form and the range is added to the workbook. The problem is that when l look for the name via the name dropdown arrow it is not there! If l look via Insert, Names, Define l can see it and l can do calculations, lookups etc. Can anybody throw any light on this please, l need the name to appear in the dropdown. ActiveWorkbook.Names.add Name:=RngName, RefersTo:= _ "=OFFSET(" & sht & tlc & ",0,0," & Rfun & "," & Cfun & ")" Regards Michael |

range name does not appear name box?
Dynamic ranges (ones that use formulas) are volatile, and can not appear in
the drop down box. You need to somehow make it static (constant) if you want it in the dropdown. Note that you can still use it in any formula/reference by just typing the name. Why do you need the name to appear in the dropdown? -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "michael.beckinsale" wrote: Hi All, The code snippet below is how l have added a named range to my workbook.
