Excel define cell name!

Hi Guys

 

I am trying to name a cell, message box said the name already exists. I found the cells with the same names i`m going to use and deleted them, the names are no longer there. When i try and name the cells again i get the same message.

 

Anyone got any ideas?

 

Cheers

Graeme

      One of the best ways to learn Excel (and a lot of other things) is to keep on playing with it. Too many people seem to be afraid to tinker, to try things out, to come at it from a different direction. You're not going to break anything (OK, keep a backup copy if it's an important spreadsheet from work or something like that, just in case....) so poke around.
