Excel 2010.

Does anyone know how to select the Name Box or object name within the Vlookup function? I have objects in a zip code heat map that I have created that are names of each zip codes. I want my vlookup to lookup the selceted objects name within and use it in a vlookup function.

Thanks

Excel Facts

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
This would just be on the workbook sheet, in the upper left cornar next to the formula bar, where it would normally state what cell you are currently in, like "A1" or if you have a object selected, it will display the name. I wish to return that name.

Thanks
