How do I assign a text value to a variable number of rows?

yes, but you need to give us more detail.

if range("a1")=2 then
range("a2:a200").name="Bill"

You can use a for/each loop adding the number to the last one using the idea
I gave you.

BTW. It is NOT useful for you to jump on those trying to offer assistance.
Sometimes we like a little humor around here.

I offered you the help of my opinion, that sometimes, the cure may be worse
then the illness.

If your goal is to complete a project, then follow my suggestion and do it
manually, so that the cost of the project (to you ... or to the client) does
not become prohibitive (time *is* money).

If, on the other hand, you're just looking to prove a point to someone,that
"it" can be done much easier and/or quicker, then by all means, keep
checking back here until someone does come up with a viable suggestion.

I appreciate your help. Let me try to describe it better.

if range("a1")=100 then range("a2:a100").name "Bill"

Then I want the next name to be assigned to the following rows
if range("b1")=125 then range"a101:a226".name"John"

How can I do this so that the new name starts 1 cell after the last name
ends. I have over forty names to do this for. I've been trying for hours
to
figure it out.

I offered you the help of my opinion, that sometimes, the cure may be worse
then the illness.

If your goal is to complete a project, then follow my suggestion and do it
manually, so that the cost of the project (to you ... or to the client) does
not become prohibitive (time *is* money).

If, on the other hand, you're just looking to prove a point to someone,that
"it" can be done much easier and/or quicker, then by all means, keep
checking back here until someone does come up with a viable suggestion.

yes, but you need to give us more detail.

if range("a1")=2 then
range("a2:a200").name="Bill"

I offered you the help of my opinion, that sometimes, the cure may be worse
then the illness.

If your goal is to complete a project, then follow my suggestion and do it
manually, so that the cost of the project (to you ... or to the client) does
not become prohibitive (time *is* money).

If, on the other hand, you're just looking to prove a point to someone,that
"it" can be done much easier and/or quicker, then by all means, keep
checking back here until someone does come up with a viable suggestion.

You can use a for/each loop adding the number to the last one using the idea
I gave you.

BTW. It is NOT useful for you to jump on those trying to offer assistance.
Sometimes we like a little humor around here.

I have a worksheet that contains up to 4000 rows of data. I want to assign a
unique name a variable number of rows based on the outcome of a formula in
another sheet. Let me try to make it clear: I have the 4000 rows of
information. I have 50 people that I want to assign the information in these
rows to. Based on the varible the frist person has the first 483 rows. The
second has the next 235 and so on until they are all assigned. Is this
possible to do in Excel?
