[ExcelVBA] Naming a Range from a variable

 

Using VBA, I want to assign a name to a range, using a variable set from
the contents of one of the cells in the range. Right now, the variable
is a string.

strJobNbr = Worksheets("Data").Range("JOB_NO").Text
When I go to give my range a name from this variable
Range("C4:R9").Name = strJobNbrit raises
Run-time Error "1004" Application-defined or object-defined error
When I use an arbitrary name embedded in quotes, it executes without a
problem.
What's going on here?
