To help my understanding of all this, can you tell me in a little more
detail why I can't do that. My thinking was that when excel calls my
function, any code in that function would run (such as a method call to
do some formatting in my case) and as long as excel got a valid return
value it would be happy. So where does my thinking break down?


I don't know why the designers made those decisions. And I don't know enough
about designing something like this to even be able to speculate.
