i'm trying to return the address of a named range.
ie: if i have a named range called "names" on worksheet "main"

C

I'de like to return "C4:C6"

i can do this on the sheet ADDRESS(ROW(names),COLUMN(names)) but VBA doesn't recognise these commands.

thanks. i'll have a look into those examples.
i guess more specifically my program works if cellRange is a string "c34:e34"
however i need to refer to a named lists "SUPPLIER_TOTAL_CHARGE" and "TOTAL_PROFIT" which is in the closed worksheet and refers to cell c34 and E34 respectively.
Is there any way to set the value of cellRange so that it refers to a named list instead of entering the range manually?
something like cellRange = Range("TOTAL_SUPPLIER_CHARGE").Address & ":" & Range("TOTAL_PROFIT").Address

Hi Zinny; it looks like you're decomposing a named range into it's physical address and then using that to refer to the combined range ... which sort of defeats the purpose of a named range.

It also looks like you're trying to use the physical address to write a formula (possibly TOTAL_SUPPLIER_CHARGE minus TOTAL_PROFIT?) .. Do you need the formula in the cell or just the result? If the latter, the simplest way would be:

If I've missed the point of what you're trying to do, perhaps a more specific explanation would help?
