Hi,
I need help with this: In cells A1:A6 I have Name of Shape In B1:B6 I have refference to another cell in form D2 in cell B1 , E3 in cell B2 , C6 in cell B3 and so on.

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
How about
Code:
Sub platypus()
    Dim Shp As Shape
    Dim Cl As Range
    
    For Each Cl In Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
        Set Shp = Sheet12.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, 1, 1, 10, 10)
        Shp.Name = Cl.Value
        With Range(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value)
            Shp.Top = .Top + (.Height / 2) - 5
            Shp.Left = .Left + (.Width / 2) - 5
        End With
    Next Cl
End Sub
