Hi Shawn,
If you are working withExcel names you may want to download Name Manager,
written by myself and Jan Karel Pieterse, from
http://www.decisionModels.com/downloads.htm

It has commands to convert names from Global (workbook level) to Local
(worksheet level) etc.

Hi

Hi

I just noticed something that was very strange and I need to find out
whether or not this is expected. It looks like multiple named ranges with
exactly the same name can exist in one workbook. This means that different
cells are referenced at different situations if this named range is used in
formulas. My understanding was that range names have to be unique within a
workbook. Which behaviour is expected?

In addition, if you look through the Insert|Name|Define menu option only
one reference shows for a particular duplicated named range.

This may sound like an observation that is not very important but it is
very important for what I'm attempting to do.

Thanks a lot

Shawn
