How to Insert or Display Named Range on Another Sheet in Excel
Displaying a named range from one sheet onto another can streamline your workflow and make your spreadsheets more efficient. Here's how to do it:
Step 1: Define Your Named Range
First, select the range of cells you want to name. Then go to the Formulas
tab and select Define Name
in the Defined Names
group. Enter a name for your range and click OK
.
Step 2: Switch to the Target Sheet
Next, navigate to the sheet where you want to display the named range.
Step 3: Use the INDIRECT Function
In the target cell, use the INDIRECT function to reference the named range from the other sheet. The formula will look like this: =INDIRECT("Sheet1!NamedRange")
. Replace "Sheet1" with the name of the sheet where your named range is located, and replace "NamedRange" with the name you defined for your range.
Step 4: Drag the Fill Handle
If your named range consists of multiple cells, click on the cell where you just entered the formula and drag the fill handle to copy the formula to adjacent cells. The fill handle is the small square at the bottom-right corner of the cell.
Step 5: Verify the Results
Make sure that your named range is correctly displayed in the target sheet.
