<paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id3154512" role="paragraph" l10n="CHG" oldref="22">In the example spreadsheet, you can use the string <item type="literal">'Column One'</item> in a formula to refer to the cell range <item type="literal">B3</item> to <item type="literal">B5</item>, or <item type="literal">'Column Two'</item> for the cell range <item type="literal">C2</item> to <item type="literal">C5</item>. You can also use <item type="literal">'Row One'</item> for the cell range <item type="literal">B3</item> to <item type="literal">D3</item>, or <item type="literal">'Row Two'</item> for the cell range <item type="literal">B4</item> to <item type="literal">D4</item>.

<paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id3149210" role="tip" l10n="CHG" oldref="37">If you want a name to be automatically recognized by Calc, the name must start with a letter and be composed of alphanumeric characters. If you enter the name in the formula yourself, enclose the name in single quotation marks ('). If a single quotation mark appears in a name, you must enter a backslash in front of the quotation mark, for example, <item type="literal">'Harry\'s Bar'.</item>
