Hi guys,
I recorded this macro..
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="DATABASE2060", RefersToR1C1:= _
"='2060_DB'!R1C1:R8C9"

Now, I am trying to achieve the same result using VBA.

My code

Set LastCell = ActiveSheet.Range("I65536").End(xlUp)
SV_Code = 2060
Reference = "='" & SV_Code & "_DB!R1C1:" & LastCell.Address(ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1)

ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="DATABASE2060", RefersToR1C1:= _
Reference

Running the vba code doesn't achieve the same result. Help guys
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.

Try this, I think it will do the trick.

Range("A1", Range("I65536").End(xlUp).Address).Name = "DATABASE2060"

Whoops, make that

Sheets("2060_DB").Range("A1", Sheets("2060_DB").Range("I65536").End(xlUp).Address).Name = "DATABASE2060"
