Hi Guys,

I am trying to "name a cell" using a name which made of both a variable and a constant.

Variable is the name of the sheet :
Dim strCurrentAppliName As String
strCurrentAppliName = ActiveSheet.Name
' Here the name of the sheet is Appli_1 so strCurrentAppliName is = to Appli_1

Line of code :
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="strCurrentAppliName + & AdminFees", RefersToR1C1:="='DATA Backup'!R121C4"

So if the line of code was good, cell R121C4 would be renamed "Appli_1AdminFees"

But the code bugs, can I get suggestions to make it work.

Note : I tried ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="strCurrentAppliName + & "AdminFees", RefersToR1C1:="='DATA Backup'!R121C4"
It does not work either.

Thanks for the help.
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
It is important to note that everything between double-quotes is literal text. All variables and operators must be OUTSIDE of the double-quotes, i.e.
Excel Formula:
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=strCurrentAppliName & "AdminFees", RefersToR1C1:="='DATA Backup'!R121C4"
