I have this code that is supposed to apply a named range to a cell validation list.

Code:
        Range("M2").Validation.Delete
        If wloc = "W" Then 'waterloo park
            Range("M2").Validation.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Formula1:=nr_labour_wp
        Else 'service centre
            Range("M2").Validation.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Formula1:=nr_labour_sc
        End If

The named ranges are defined properly as I can see them in the name manger.

In runtime, the cell dropdown list simple say #N/A.

Is anyone able to suggest what might be causing this?

Range("M2").Validation.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Formula1:="=nr_labour_wp"
