    Naming Ranges or Not

    I created two financial forms, in Excel. Formulas in Form B take values that exist in Form A and populates cells in Form B.

    This is code from Form B:
     
    =IF('G:\FormA.xls'RE1Add1="","",'G:\FormA.xls'RE1Add1)
    You notice that instead of using generic cell references, I named the cells. This is creating a problem now if the user needs to add rows to a particular section because they cannot just copy the formula down, because Excel copies the exact range names down.

    So do I have a choice but to go back and unname those cells? Is there a way to substitute cell references for cell names in a formula?
