I'm trying to have a worksheet display the values of 6 horizontal cells from another worksheet in the same workbook and in order as they appear.
I've created a Named Range "ExecutedTotals_2023_Jan" for these cells.

Instructions say...
To display a named range on another sheet, you just need to use the formula =name (the range name) and press Shift + Ctrl + Enter keys together.

If I do this in the first of 6 cells or if I select all 6 horizontal cells and do this and I get #NAME in either the one cell or all 6 cells.
What am I missing?
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
in which version of excel you are using this?

if you type =<name> which you have choose for your range, does it show in dropdown?

If you are doing this in 365 you just need to use
Excel Formula:
=ExecutedTotals_2023_Jan

I'm using 365 and when I use
Excel Formula:
=ExecutedTotals_2023_Jan
I get #NAME? and a cell warning saying "The formula contains unrecognized text."
The five cells to the right I expect to have data from the range are blank.

This does work if I use it on the same worksheet that contains the range.

That means the defined name is worksheet scope, so you will need to put the sheet name infront like
Excel Formula:
='Sheet 1'!ExecutedTotals_2023_Jan
