The naming of Excel cells should be done carefully, because any mistake here will result in an error during the calculation of the Excel Indicator. Once a cell has been labelled with a name, the Microsoft Excel Name Manager must be used to edit or remove the name of the cell. The Name Manager can be opened as follows; select Formulas → Defined Names → Name Manager.

On the Excel Name Manager panel you can find all defined names in the workbook and to what cells these names refer. If you want to edit a cell name, highlight it and select the Edit Button. The following panel will then appear:

To delete a cell name, highlight the entry and select Delete. A message will ask for confirmation.

You can even select multiple entries at once, by pressing the Shift key when selecting. This can be very convenient when rearranging all VAR_# entries for instance.
