Default Excel 2007 UDFs result in #REF! errors

Do you have any workbook/worksheet names that look like add1, sum1, vol1?

How about the module names for those functions? You didn't make them the same
name did you? If you did, rename the modules (ModAdd1, ModSum1, ...).

If you start a new workbook from scratch, can you create the UDFs with those
names?

I get strange results when I try to create UDFs in Excel 2007 (using
Vista).

For example, if I name the function any of the following, I get a
#REF! error.
add1
sum1
vol1

However, I don't get such an error if I use
addone
sumone
volone

I never noticed this before in earlier versions of Excel and it was a
pain until I worked out what appeared to be going on.

Any comments about this behaviour (and anything else that may be
associated)? For example, I presume this has been done to preserve
key names, which suggests any key name with just an integer after it
could be suspect.

Thanks,
Chris
