It works fine in my Excel 2000. There is another way though.
Export the module and open from file in a text editor.

After the function name include the description attribute, eg

Function foo(arg)
Attribute foo.VB_Description = "first line of info\r\nSecond line more info"
' your code
End Function

The \r\n in the string will force a new line (max 2 lines in xl97, 3 in
later versions) or just allow to wrap.
Save and import back into your project (drag from file) after removing the
old bas.

Hopefully this feature works in later versions of Excel! In Excel 2000
(SP-3), Excel just throws the Description field away after the programmer
enters it in the Member Options dialog box!
