    Delete cell names on complete workbook

    I have different cells named through out a workbook in different tabs. Is it possible to delete all the named cells without going into each individual cell to delete the name? Thanks!

    Re: Delete cell names on complete workbook

    here are some I use
    sub DeleteAllNames() 'ALL sheets
    For Each Name In Names
    Name.Delete
    Next Name
    End Sub
    Sub DeleteAllNamesBUTprint()
    For Each n In Names
    If Right(n.Name, 10) <> "Print_Area" _
    And Right(n.Name, 12) <> "Print_Titles" _
    Then n.Delete
    Next n
    End Sub
    Sub DeleteAllNames_Umlas()
    ExecuteExcel4Macro "SUM(DELETE.NAME(NAMES()))"
    End Sub
    Sub DeleteHiddenNames()
    Dim n As Name
    Dim Count As Integer
    For Each n In ActiveWorkbook.Names
    If Not n.Visible Then
    n.Delete
    Count = Count + 1
    End If
    Next n
    MsgBox Count & " hidden names were deleted."
    End Sub

    Hi Don,

    Thanks for your help. I do have a couple of questions though...
    1) Will deleting the names from the cells create a problem with the formulas I have associated with those names? Basically, the worksheet is a financial statement model and most of the formulas were created with named cells and I would like to remove the names and just have the formulas point to the cell location instead of the name. Does your code accomplish this?

    2) Can you point me to a quick dummy's how-to on how to implement your code in excel? Unfortunately, I am clueless when it comes to VBA.

    Thanks again!
