I find the easiest way to find out if a cell is part of a named range is to use
Jan Karel Pieterse's (with Charles Williams
and Matthew Henson) Name Manager

You can find it at:
NameManager.Zip from http://www.oaltd.co.uk/mvp

(ok, that doesn't help if you need it in the middle of your code--but it's still
a very useful addin.)
