Default using a range in a custom function

Here is a really simple example. This needs to be in a regular module in
order to be accessible as a worksheet function

Public Function MZ(ByVal Target As Range) As Double
Dim rngCurrent As Range
Dim dblReturnValue As Double

For Each rngCurrent In Target
dblReturnValue = dblReturnValue + rngCurrent.Value
Next rngCurrent
MZ = dblReturnValue
End Function

Tom-

i want to feed a range into a function in VBA. lets say the range is
cells(A1:B10), 20 cells conservatively. i named the range "grid".

now i want to write a function in VBA, lets call it "Mz", and feed it
"grid" as an input. so when i write the worksheetfunction "=Mz(grid)"
in any cell, the workbook understands this. (i want to feed the
function this range rather than have to feed it 20 individual cells).

my question is, how do i break the range down inside the function so
that i can address each of the cells individually? like perhaps into an
array?

lets say array dat1... (option base 1)

dim dat1() as double
redim dat1(10,2) - or - redim dat1(20,1) probably the latter
here.

or if there is a better way of breaking these down besides into an
array can you please enlighten me?

thanks for your help,
-tad
