I have many cells with data validation set to lists identified by named ranges. Does anybody know how I can use vba to return the name of the range that is assigned to each cell when it is selected and becomes the active cell?

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Code:
Mid(activecell.validation.formula1, 2)
