I REALLY think this is a BAD idea in that there are other and BETTER ways to do this without cluttering your project with a bunch of names . But, if you insist.

Sub namecolumns()
dim I as long
For i = 1 To Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Cells(1, i).Resize(Cells(Rows.Count, i).End(xlUp).Row).Name = Cells(1, i)
Next i
End Sub

Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ Creating and naming multiple ranges

Hello, I have a spreadsheet and It has many columns and I want to
create a range for each column automatically and name it based on the
value at the top row. Unfortunately, this code i created doesn't work.
Can anyone help me fix this code?

Any help would be great!

Sub test()


Dim icol As Integer
Dim cell1(200), cell2, rng(200) As Range
j = 1
For icol = 1 To 121


   Set cell1(j) = Cells(1, icol)
   Set cell2 = cell1(j).End(xlDown)
   Set rng(j) = Range(cell1(j), cell2)

   rng(j).Name = cell1(j)
   rng(j).Select

   j = j + 1

Next icol

End Sub
