In a data analysis worksheet I create named ranges for each data
column. The names are used in formulas, conbditional formating, charts etc. To work around named range "name" limitations and how I want my column headings to look I replace blank spaces with "_", name the range and then replace "_" with blank spaces. Note, the renaming is new I have been just living with underscores in the headings. Like so: For Each C In Selection cAdd = C.Address cRng = Range(C.Offset(1, 0), C.End(xlDown)).Address C.Value = Replace(C.Value, " ", "_") 'Make header text safe for "NAMES" ActiveSheet.Names.Add Name:=C.Value, RefersTo:="=" & "'" & SheetName & "'" & "!" & cRng C.Value = Replace(C.Value, "_", " ") 'restore blanks in header text Next In a few instances the code searches through the headings for keywords and the selects a named range based in the findings. Like so: Set zNmRngA = Cells.Find(what:="IMP", _ After:=ActiveCell, _ LookIn:=xlValues, _ lookat:=xlPart, _ searchorder:=xlByColumns, _ SearchDirection:=xlNext, _ MatchCase:=False, _ SearchFormat:=False) in this case the first column found has the heading "IMP 100 Hz" when it tries to match it to a name one is not found because the corresponding name is "IMP_100_Hz" is it possible to modify zNmRngA after it is set to find and replace the blanks with "_"? I know this is a goofy setup but it has evolved over the years and Im just trying to clean up the presentation. |
