Querying the coordinates of the range reference by an Excel name

Description

Queries the coordinates of an Excel named range in a workbook.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'workbook'
getReferenceCoordinatesForName(object,name, worksheetScope)

Arguments

object	The workbook to use
name	The name to query. This argument is vectorized such that multiple names can be queried with one method call.
worksheetScope	Optional, the name of the worksheet to use for resolving the named region

Details

If worksheetScope is defined, only coordinates for a range scoped strictly to the specified worksheet are returned. To explicitly only query for named ranges in the global scope, pass "" as the value.
