Thank you for the answer. How would I change a macro that I recorded to use
a RangeName instead of the cell range? I am not that familiar with the VB
code.
Thanks

or, select the cells and name in the NAME box to the left of the formula
box.
To do with a macro
sheets("yoursheet").range("a2:b5").name="newname"

Here is the code I have now:
ub Character()
'
' Character Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+c
'
Range("A1:C3").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("G1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
How do I change this to use aRangeName "CHARACTER" instead of the current
cell range? Thank you for your help.

I wouldn't use ctr+c as it is already used by excel.
Sub copyrangebyname()
Range("character").Copy Range("g1")
End Sub
