Hello Board,

I have created a range name for a large group of cells I need to delete daily to enter new data. I now need some VBA code to clear these cells. I've named the range Reset. I tried recording a macro and replacing the select cell with the range name but it doesn't work. Can anyone help...its probably really simple to most of you, I just need the range name to clear and return the cursor to A1. Thanks in advance

Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
Code:
Sub ClearMacro()
'Clears the range
    Range("Reset").Select
    Selection.ClearContents
End Sub

I forgot the A1 return:

Code:
Sub ClearMacro()
'Clears the range
    Range("List").Select
    Selection.ClearContents
    Range("A1").Select
End Sub

Or just:-
Code:
Range("Whatever").ClearContents
Then you don't need to re-select.
