Is 300,000 Named Ranges going to cause problems?
 
I've already posted about a similar issue with creating the named
ranges and have successfully created all 300,000 needed for a
particular project I am working on...however, is having 300,000 named
ranges going to result into performance issues with Excel at some point?

yes, performance will be very slow. 300,000 named ranges is not a good idea.
You can probably reduce the number of named ranges by a large factor by
using implicit intersection.

Are you trying to use these 300K named ranges in Excel formulae or in VBA?
can you give an example of the code/formulae you are using?

See the new topic I posted...turns out after a reboot Excel decided
that the spreadsheet was invalid (LUCKY FOR ME I MADE A BACKUP WITHOUT
THE NAMES)...now I am trying to figure out a solution using a on sheet
refrence created by formulas and getting Excel VBA to goto locations
based on the values of the formulas...see topic above a few posts.
