Default Hiding named rows


Hi!

I'm trying to write code that will hide or show rows in one worksheet
depending on if their related info is displayed in another. The rows
want to show or hide are named, so I can easily reference them. But
I'm having problems refering to the rows in code. Rows are normall
referred to by their number, but shouldn't it be possible to refer t
them by name?

This is my code:


Code
-------------------

If Target.Column = 23 Then

Dim wrkSheet As Worksheet
Set wrkSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet3")
Dim sRowName As String
'putting together the name of the row from the value of the referencing cell
sRowName = "ROW_" & Target.Cells.Value

'rows are hidden by default, show the appropriate one!
wrkSheet.Rows(sRowName).Hidden = False

End If

-------------------


This gives me a 'Type Mismatch' error, which implies that the Row
property can't accept string indexes. Anyone got a spare clue for me
