Hi,

I am trying to design code to create a defined name for a cell based off the value of another cell. The cell that contains the name that I would like to be the defined name is in cell (“C2”). The cell that I would like to obtain the defined name is the cell above the new column create from this code:


Code:
Private Sub AddCompetitorButton_Click()

With Sheets("Competitor Overview Data").ListObjects("CompOverviewTable")
    .ListColumns.Add(.ListColumns.Count + 1).Name = Range("C2")
    .ListColumns(.ListColumns.Count - 1).Range.EntireColumn.Copy
    .ListColumns(.ListColumns.Count).Range.EntireColumn.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
End With

The column headers are competitor names, so I want the cell above the column headers to have the defined name of the competitor name, which comes from cell (“C2”).

What do you think?
