names, as follows:
Using Names
In the example above, the "Subtotal" amounts in Row 8 are calculated
from the formula:
R2
+
R3
+
R4
+
R5
+
R6
in cells R8C2, R8C3, and
R8C4,

groups, You then refer to the cell or cell group by its name instead of its
reference,

Names must begin with a letter (a-z or A-Z), The other characters may
consist of letters, numbers (0-9), periods ( , ), and/or underlines ( _ ),
Names can be up to 32 characters long; no spaces are allowed. Also, names
cannot look like absolute or relative cell references (for example, RIC I or
R[-l ]C[+2]),
Use the Multiplan
Name
command to define a name. Defined names can
be used anywhere on a spreadsheet, the same as a cell reference. An
example of names follows:
