Hi, I have a problem with names in formulas.

In Sheet1!A1 I refered to the Sheet2, for example
"=Sheet2!A2+Sheet2!A3+Sheet2!A4". Later I named these three cells in
Sheet2 (Mortgage, Insuarance, Heating), so in Sheet1!A1 I expected the
formula like "Mortgage+Insuarance+Heating", but it does not change
automatically.
This is just little example of refering in my Workbook, so it would take
a long time, if I created formulas again, although with names.

Is there any quick way, how to change these addresses in formulas to names?

Thanx

Marian
 
For names on the same sheet as the formula, you can select a range of
cells, and choose Insert>Name>Apply. Select one or more range names, and
click OK.

For names that are on a different sheet, you can use Edit>Replace. For
example, Find what: Sheet2!A3 With:Insurance and click Replace All.
