checking and setting a value to a range in VBA
 

Greetings,
I'm trying to do an easy thing (I think) but have not succeeded thus
far.

I created a name range manually in a spreadsheet, but need to check
via VBA code for the value of that range, then if it changed to its
default, reset that range to a specific value.

To check the that the row has not changed, I do the following: iRow =
Range("=MyRange").Row
and thus if this is not my original value, I reassigned it ( this is
where I'm getting an error msg in the code).

I'm using excel 2003.

Many thanks.

Or alternatively, I'd like to dynamically set that range to soemthing specific, like: "sheet1!$B$10:$B$30"

Many thanks.

Names("MyRange").RefersTo = "=Sheet1!$B$10:$B$30"

I'm getting "application-defined or object-defined error". I'm using
office 2003. Can that be an issue?
