Strange Excel 365 error when trying to define a name using the Name Box

[dejhantulip]

Hey everyone,

So I woke up today and found that I cannot define names in my Excel 365 using the Name Box. In the red circle I just tried typing a also tried angle, it is not letting me type any names.

Also I cannot use the Name Box to go to select a range either, for example if I type c5:d8 in the name box I get:

Is anyone else getting these type of errors?

Are you on the insider Beta channel?

Yes sir, I am. Could that be the problem?

I think it could, there was another post recently where someone on the Beta channel had the same problem, so I'm guessing that it's a bug.
Best bet would be to report it to MS & see what they say.

Awesome thanks! Will do that...

Is there a way to report it to MS from Excel or a specific forum to do so? I have never had the need to report anything up until now.
