    Re: Check Field data type (cell format) based on named range

    Hmm,

    thank you.

    I have named range "VariableRange" which refers to cell A2 in specific worksheet.
    So only one cell i need to refer and read cell format.

    And cell format you can have Custom/General/Date/Number etc.

    Best,
    Jacek

    n.referstorange.numberformat should be enough if they are all one cell. You'll need error handling for any names that aren't ranges.
    Everyone who confuses correlation and causation ends up dead.
