RE: Defining and Using Name Ranges

Hello Melissa,

Thank you for your question regarding named ranges.

Unfortunately, there is no way of hiding a hidden name directly through Excel. This would have to be done through VBA.

But to point you in the right direction the code would look like this:
Sub HideNames()
ActiveWorkbook.Names("qwerty1").Visible = False

End Sub

The name of your range replaces the "qwerty1" above.

Not sure in what context you would want to hide the named range!


I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark

Excel tip:

Colouring cells containing formulas

Cells in a worksheet can contain values or they can contain formulas. You may wish to identify all the cells in your worksheet that contain formulas by colouring those cells.

Follow these steps:
1. Choose Edit > Go To menu, or press either F5 or Ctrl+G. Excel displays the Go To dialog box.
2. Click Special. Excel displays the Go To Special dialog box.
3. Select the Formulas radio button option.
4. Select OK.

At this point, every formula cell in the worksheet is selected, and those cells can be coloured formatted as desired.
