I don't quite folow that but then I am in Gnumeric 1.8 (because that is what is in my distro's repository). I have been able to assign a name to a range but I cannot figure out how to USE the name. For example, in an application I piloted in Excel 2000, I needed to work with a block of 30,000 cells. It gets tiresome highlighting that with a mouse, so in Excel I named if "Fred" and can select the whole block by pulling down the Name window and selecting Fred. But in Gnumeric that window just shows single cell addresses. I can also do this in Calc where I can, for example, enter a formula like "=sum(Fred)" and get something reasonable while Gnumeric just returns 0 no matter what is in Fred (and after I press F9). Are the various things other spreadsheets DO with named ranges not implemented in Gnumeric or am I just looking in the wrong place?
