Initialize Local Range Names in VBA Quicker

VBA Range Names Declare Assistant

I always use locally named range in all my spreadsheets, in fact I wrote a post about it earlier. I extend my love for named ranges even while writing VBA code for spreadsheet applications.

Having named ranges in worksheets, and updating them to include more data before processing is the best way to go.

Nothing makes me happier than to help my fellow strugglers, so I worked on an extension.
