with Excel 2007 Comprehensive 1e© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall4 Create Formulas Using Named Ranges A named range identifies a group of cells that can be used in a formula, rather than the cell references. A named cell is identified by a name rather than the cell reference. Using a name in a formula makes it easier to understand.

with Excel 2007 Comprehensive 1e© 2008 Pearson Prentice Hall5 Create Formulas Using Named Ranges Reviewing a formula using names makes the formula easier to understand: =SUM(FirstQuarterSales) rather than =SUM(C20:C30) You can define a name for a cell range. By default, names are absolute cell references.
