Normally, named ranges are rectangular with cells continuous and adjacent to each other. But sometimes, you may need to use a non-sequential cell range in which cells are not adjacent. Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++ supports creating a named range with non-adjacent cells.
The code sample below shows how to create a named non-sequential range with Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++.

// Creating a non sequence range of cells
name.refersTo = "=Sheet1!$A$1:$B$3,Sheet1!$D$5:$E$6";
