Using Activecell.Address when defining name
Hi,
When using ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=sNameString, RefersTo:=ActiveCell.AddressLocal To put the name stored in sNameString to the active cell, it does not work because ActiveCell.Addreslocal returns "$B$2" rather than $B$2. What is the easiest way around this? Thanks --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |
