How to reassign the address of a named range in Open Office VBA?

Question
In Excel VBA, I redefine the address of a named range with:
Ranges("MyRange").Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Name = "MyRange"
in the Worksheet_Deactivate event.
This way, after updating the spreadsheet, MyDataRange always references to the entire data. Ok with Excel, but when I tried to migrate this to Open Office VBA (OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 / OOO310m19 Build:9420) the ".Name" property of the Range isn't defined.
Then, I tried with:
ThisWorkbook.Names("MyDataRange").RefersTo = Range("MyDataRange").Cells(1).CurrentRegion
with no luck ("the property is Read Only" error)
Again, I tried with:
ThisWorkbook.Names.Add ("MyDataRange", Range("MyDataRange").Cells(1).CurrentRegion)
This works, but after that all the cells with validations that references to the named range loses the original reference and shows "#NAME#" in the popup.
Is there any way to reassign the address of a named range without losing the references to it?
TIA,
Pablo

I wonder if this technique would work?
