Names.Add - compile error
 

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with the following statement that is
preventing my VBA code from compiling ?

Names.Add(Name:="Base",
RefersTo:=ActiveCell.Offset(WorksheetFunction.Coun tA("$a$2:$a$60000"),6 as
range)

Thank !

You shouldn't need the "As Range". This worked for me:

Names.Add "Base", ActiveCell.Offset(WorksheetFunction.CountA("$A$2:$ A
$60000"),6)

try this.

Sub makename()
ma = ActiveCell.Address
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="base", RefersTo:= _
"=OFFSET(" & ma & ",COUNTA($a$2:$a$6000),6)"
End Sub
