If a range is
Code:
Set MyRange = Application.Range("Sheet1!A2:G2")
Is it possible to get the name (Header) of the column anyhow ?
I tried ? MyRange(2).Name but no go.
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.

Which column as your range covers 7 columns? and is row 2 the row with the headers?

As I understand it, MyRange will contain contents of Cols A to G on row 2 with MyRange(2) = Col B, Row 2
The Header names are in Row 1.
I don't think they will exist in "MyRange" but wanted to be sure...

If You mean for instance the value in C1 from MyRange then

Code:
Sub xxxx()
Dim MyRange As Range
Set MyRange = Application.Range("Sheet1!A2:G2")
Debug.Print MyRange(0, 3)
End Sub
