Finding starting row number of a range name of Excel

In an Excel worksheet, I have a range name "LOOPBACK_IP". I want to programmatically find the starting row of this range name.

With Powershell, if I want to find the value of this开发者_如何学JAVA range, I use (after assigning $ws variable a worksheet):

write-host $ws.Range("LOOPBACK_IP").Value2

But to find the location (i.e. row, column) of a range name, what do I do?

Thanks.

The first row is the first element of $ws.Range("LOOPBACK_IP").Rows

... the property for the row number is .Row

For example in VBA, the following shows a msgbox with the number of each row

For Each rw In MyRange.Rows
    MsgBox rw.Row 
Next rw

Not sure if you can call this the same way from Powershell, but the ROW function called on a range will return the starting row of the range. If you had a range RangeName that started at cell C3, =ROW(RangeName) would return 3.

I think this may only work properly if your range is rectangular, but I can't confirm at the moment.

Names("LOOPBACK_IP").RefersToRange.Row gives you the row; .Column gives you the (numeric) column.

You can also use Names("LOOPBACK_IP").RefersTo or Names("LOOPBACK_IP").RefersToLocal would give something like =Sheet1!$D$9:$D$30, if that might be useful - though I must admit I don't know what makes 'Local' any different.
