I have this script which works when run as a module script by pressing a button:

VBA Code:
Sub Range_Name()
'Modified 10/16/2020 3:55:51 AM  EST
Dim sn As String
Dim ans As String
ans = ActiveCell.Value
sn = Range(ans).Worksheet.Name
Sheets(sn).Range(ans).Copy Sheets(1).Range("B11")
End Sub

But then I have this same script as a double click script but it causes a error when I double click on a cell with a proper named range in the cell I double click on:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
Dim sn As String
Dim ans As String
ans = Target.Value
sn = Range(ans).Worksheet.Name
Sheets(sn).Range(ans).Copy Sheets(1).Range("B11")

End Sub

I get this error code:
Run Time error 1004
Method Range of object
Worksheet Failed

Any help here on why this would happen.
