It would be useful in Excel if the list of Names would indicate whether a
name is active (i.e. it has precedents or dependents). Also, it would be
useful to know whether certain names are in fact duplicates of each other.

You may want to get Jan Karel Pieterse's (with Charles Williams and Matthew
Henson) Name Manager:

You can find it at:
NameManager.Zip from http://www.oaltd.co.uk/mvp

It'll make working with names much, much easier.


=======
But be careful.

A name can be in use in code (or other names) and never be in use in a formula.
