How can give the same name to a row or column in different sheets.
 
I have sheet that does that. It has the same name for similar ranges, only
they are specific to the sheet, but I don't seem to be able to do it

When you wish to create a WS specific (local) named range,
Select the range,
Click in the "name box",
And enter the sheet name *before* the range name, followed with an
exclamation point.
Sheet1!myrange
Sheet2!myrange

If you know ahead of time that you will need locally named ranges, you could
create them on a single WS, then, you can copy this sheet, where each copy
will then already contain it's own locally named ranges.

If you're working with names, get Jan Karel Pieterse's (with Charles Williams
and Matthew Henson) Name Manager

You can find it at:
NameManager.Zip from http://www.oaltd.co.uk/mvp
