    Remarks

    Use the GetDefinedName method overloads to return a DefinedName object associated with the current cell range. The scope parameter specifies where to search a name: in the DefinedNameCollection collection of the current worksheet (Worksheet.DefinedNames) or the entire workbook (IWorkbook.DefinedNames).

    You can also use the Name property to return a string that specifies the range’s name.

    Refer to the Defined Names document for more information on defined names.
