I need a way to specify a variable for the last row in a named range.

A static definition looks like this:
ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="dAge", RefersTo:="=RawData!$H$2:$H$100",
Visible:=True

I would like to replace €œ100€� with €œnRows€� and need help with the syntax.


Thank you.

I assume that nRows is an integer or long variable...

ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="dAge", RefersTo:="=RawData!$H$2:$H$" & nRows,
Visible:=True

HTH...

I hope the poster understands that the named range is not "connected" to
nRows, i.e., if the value of nRows changes later it won't change the range
that was just created. Just thought I'd mention it....

In addition to other replies do you really mean to add the name to
"ThisWorkbook". From what you followed up with in your other recent I
suspect you mean ActiveWorkbook or some other named wb.
