I just got another tip which is similar to yours, Tom:

If ActiveCell.Name.NameLocal="Revenue" then ...

What might the difference be between .Name and .NameLocal

If you're using the English version of Excel, none. If a foreign language, it
should return the name in that language. But presumably the user would have
used his native tongue when setting up the name.

I doubt it does much of anything except perhaps with built in names like
Database or Print_Area. then it might translate them to the name used in
that local. (I don't know, I don't have access to other than US English)
For a name like "ABCD" or "Revenue" I doubt it would do anything.
