Default Refer to a named range

Hi
XL2003
I am having trouble using a named range in a macro, even after refering the
Help.
The named range lives in the active workbook on another sheet.
My code is this:

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
With [CompNames]
Set c = .Find(Range("A1"))
If Not c Is Nothing Then A = Sheets("Names").Cells(c.Row, 3)
End With
If ActiveSheet.Name < A Then ActiveSheet.Name = A
End Sub

You will see that I have had to resort to using [ ] around the named range,
which is the only way I could get the code to run.
I tried Range("CompNames") and Range(CompNames) and tried including the
sheet name and the workbook name, but none of those worked.
What am I doing wrong?
Regards - Dave.
