Script problem on excel spanish version
 

I have an excel macro under microsoft excel 2003 sp2 in spanish version that
have a strange behaviour.
the macro is this:

Sub Macro1()

Dim keyinizio As String
keyinizio = "START"

Dim myExcel As Object
Set myExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

myExcel.Visible = True
myExcel.WindowState = -4143

myExcel.Workbooks.Add

myExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=keyinizio,
RefersToR1C1:="=Hoja1!R1C1:R1C1"

MsgBox myExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Names(1)

myExcel.Goto (keyinizio)

End Sub

The message box return this value: =Hoja1!'R1C1':Hoja1!'R1C1'

So the GoTo instruction rise an error "Run-time error 1004: not valid
reference"

The correct value that expect in ActiveWorkbook.Names should be =Hoja1!'$A$1'

This behaviour happend only spanish version, with the italin and english
version all works fine

Thanks

Giulio

Maybe it's the international differences that are used for R(ow) and C(olumn).

myExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=keyinizio, _
RefersTo:="=Hoja1!A1"

or just name the range itself.

worksheets("hoja1").range("a1").name = keyinizio
