Hi Chris,

Manually or programmatically with a string address, defining or editing a
Name is limited to 255 characters. In practice can be less than that.

In code you can define the name to that refer directly to a range. The limit
is between 149 and 224 multiple areas depending on the combination of single
or multiple cells in each area. The limit is not related to length of
address.

Sub test()
Dim rng As Range
Dim i As Long

Set rng = Range("A1:B1")

For i = 3 To 298 Step 2
Set rng = Union(rng, Range(Cells(i, 1), Cells(i, 2)))
Next

ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add "LongName", rng

Set rng = Nothing

Set rng = Range("LongName")

rng.Select

MsgBox rng.Count & " cells" & vbCr & _
rng.Areas.Count & " areas" '149

End Sub


There's no way to manually edit a name with that many areas. However with
fewer, it may help to temporarily rename the sheet to a single letter.

There are other ways (lot of code) to define a name with much more than the
149/224 limit, though I limit to 3,600 areas for practical reasons.

Regards,
Peter T

There are too many cell references so I can not get this to work.

Is there another way to define names with so many cell references?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.

Thanks Susan, Peter T and Charles Williams. In column B of my
spreadsheet, I need to name a range of cells called: jpgCells. This
occurs every 21 rows for 200 instances (except the very first instance).
This will enable a user to double-click on these cells to insert a jpg
picture.

Can I name each of these cells in a different way to achieve my outcome?

More help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.

Don't try to edit it manually after it is created or it will screw it up.

One way:

Dim rTemp As Range

Set rTemp = Union(Range("B2"), Range("B4220"))
For i = 21 to 4179 Step 21
Set rTemp = Union(rTemp, Cells(i, 2))

I stand corrected. His later post says every 21 is what he wants.

I guess he had some typos:

One way:

Dim rTemp As Range
Dim i As Long

Set rTemp = Union(Range("B2"), Range("B4220"))
For i = 21 to 4179 Step 21
Set rTemp = Union(rTemp, Cells(i, 2))
Next i
rTemp.Name = "jpgCells"

There are too many cell references so I can not get this to work.

Is there another way to define names with so many cell references?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.

I don't follow exactly which cells you want to define, your description
below is slightly inconsistent with the long address you posted. The
following makes almost the same range as Tom's but not quite due to
discrepancies in your descriptions, should be easy enough for you to adjust
though. Test in a new workbook.

Sub test()
Dim i As Long
Dim rng As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet

On Error Resume Next
Set ws = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Item")
On Error GoTo 0

If ws Is Nothing Then ' you shouldn't won't need this bit
Set ws = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
ws.Name = "Item"
End If

With ws
Set rng = .Range("B2") ' row 2

For i = 21 To (21 * 200) Step 21 ' starts row 21, 19 below B2 ?
Set rng = Union(rng, .Cells(i, 2))
Next

End With

ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add "jpgCells", rng
'or
'rng.Name = "jpgCells"

Set rng = Nothing
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
' only for testing
Set rng = Range("jpgCells")

ws.Columns(1).ClearFormats
rng.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
rng.Select

'MsgBox rng.Count & " cells"

i = 0
For Each rng In Range("jpgCells").Cells
i = i + 1
Cells(i, 4) = rng.Address(0, 0)
Next

End Sub

Bear in mind this is pretty close to the 224 limit I mentioned earlier for
single cell areas in a defined name.

In your double click event -
If Not Intersect(Range("jpgCells"), Target(1)) Is Nothing Then
' open the jpg with filename in Target(1)

Thanks Susan, Peter T and Charles Williams. In column B of my
spreadsheet, I need to name a range of cells called: jpgCells. This
occurs every 21 rows for 200 instances (except the very first instance).
This will enable a user to double-click on these cells to insert a jpg
picture.

Can I name each of these cells in a different way to achieve my outcome?

More help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.

I stand corrected. His later post says every 21 is what he wants.

I guess he had some typos:

I didn't check *every* interval, but it appeared that only the first and
last were less than 21.

There was one or two others, enough that a mechanical check failed.
