Default using a VB function in a spreeadsheet

I was having the same problem but only when I placed the function in
Personal.xls.
When I placed the same function in a module in the workbook that I wanted to
use it in, it worked fine.

Dunno if you've already tried this?!

I tried that and I still get the #Name? error. I have hit F9 to

recalculate.
As a test I added two Ripple functions and when I added a new cell with

that
name it popped up an error the notice the name conflict. So it seems to be
trying.

Any other suggestion?

You have to plce your code in a Module.

I opened the VB editor and added a simple function to the General

sheet.
I
tried both ThisWorkbook and the specific sheet.

Public Function Ripple(x As Double) As Double

Ripple = x

End Function

In the spreadsheet I try to put =Ripple(A1), etc, into cells, but I get

a
#Name? error. How do I get the spreadsheet to recognize the VB

function?
