referring to names
 

Hi all,

I have the following bit of code in Excell 2002 that adds names based on two
columns, the first with the reference name and the second the value for the
name.

Do While Cells(i + 1, 1) < ""
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=Cells(i + 1, 1), RefersToR1C1:= _
"=InputParameters!R" & i + 1 & "C2"
i = i + 1
Loop

How would you reference one of the added names in VB?

A simple check, such as msgbox name_here, returns a variable not defined
error.

Thanks,

Jason

referring to names
 

msgbox Range("name1").Address & ", " & Range("name1").value


where "name1" represents the name of interest.

Depends upon what is in Cells(I+1,1), but it would be something like

Range("the_Value").Value
