Carrie -

You can use defined names Xrange and Yrange to refer to the numeric data
ranges on your worksheet. And if you change the Refers To range of both
defined names, the formulas will update. In Excel 2003, choose Insert | Name
| Define.

Thanks and sorry I should have been clear in defining my issues. I have
reposted the issue under Dynamic Range Name in Functions. It's true the
defined names work as long as I have a set range but the values change and if
there is a blank then I get the #VALUE! error. So I am trying to get a
dynamic range to work but so far I have not been successful.

Instead of
LN(range)
use
If(ISNUMBER(range),LN(range))
and array enter the formula.

Not sure if I did this correctly but it came up with a zero value =IF
(ISNUMBER($E$4:$E$103),LN($E$4:$E$103)) - entered as an array formula,
correct? This is the X range. It represents the number of units in sequential
order. So that the range is a possible 100 vaules and I currently have 1 - 82
in the range. The rest or the range are true blank cells.
