named range and start over. thanks in advance for any replies on this.

Hi

Go to Insert / Name / Define and edit the range in there.

Select your new range. Click Insert, Name, Define and enter the same name as
before. That will overwrite Excel's recognition of the previous range.

You can change it in the Define Name dialog. Change the range in
the "Refers to" text box.

With code, you can change the number of rows to which the name
refers to with code like

With ThisWorkbook.Names("TheRange")
.RefersTo = .RefersToRange.Resize(10, 1)
End With

Or maybe use a dynamic named range that grows or contracts with your data.

See Debra Dalgeish's site for some nice tips:
