Re: How to insert names (NEW USER)

[Jean Brefort <jean brefort normalesup org>]

Select the cell you want to give a name to and press Ctrl+F3, then you
must click on the appropriate + sign (add the name to the workbook or to
the sheet). You can also acess this dialog usint the Edit/Modify/Names
menu entry.
