In your code snippets, we do not see which value is assigned to return from
the function

When using TempCell.Value, the UDF returns the same wrong value as with
the
IsEmpty function...

I think those functions modify the calculationflow of the excel sheet?

Many thanks

Application.Calculation = xlManual inside a UDF is ignored.

You don't need to use evaluate, just use
Temp=TempCell.Value

This will work both when the cell contains a formula and the cell
contains a
value.

if you want to avoid your UDF processing uncalculated cells put at the
top
of your function
If IsEmpty(PressCell) or Isempty(Tempcell) then exit function

Posting the relevant original code (all the code is impossible, it's
part
of
an extended add in)

Arguments: PressCell / TempCell
calling the function by
= FlowProperty( A1;A2;velocity )
or
= FlowProperty( 1 ; 20.5 ; velocity )

Public Function FlowProperty(PressCell As Variant, TempCell As Variant,
Property As String) As Double

Application.Volatile True
On Error GoTo catch
ExcelListSeparator = Application.International(xlListSeparator)
Dim PropertyData As New Collection
Application.Calculation = xlManual


If TypeName(TempCell) = "Range" Then
Temp = Application.ActiveSheet.Evaluate(TempCell.Formula)
ElseIf IsNumeric(TempCell) Then
Temp = TempCell
Else
MsgBox "Enter valid temperature range"
Exit Function
End If


If TypeName(PressCell) = "Range" Then
Press = Application.ActiveSheet.Evaluate(PressCell.Formula )
ElseIf IsNumeric(PressCell) Then
Press = PressCell
Else
MsgBox "Enter valid pressure range"
Exit Function
End If

Hi,

When updating the code of an old (working) UDF I tried to make it
more
user-friendly by changing a part of the code with the "IsEmpty(
...)"
function.
But after this modification the UDF would only return a "0" when
referenced
by a cell containing a formula.

I changed the UDF back to its original code but can't figure out
tried
what
happens with the code when using "IsEmpty(...)". The problem of
returning
0
arrises as soon as I add "IsEmpty(...)" in the code. Even when it's
only
used
in a Debug.Print statement (ex. "Debug.Print isEmpty(UDFargument)")

Does the IsEmpty function do anything more dan returning "True" for
a
blank
cell or "False" ?


Original code:
If TypeName(Argument) = "Range" Then
Argument = Cell
....
ElseIf ...
Argument = number
End If

When argument is a cell containing a formula: "=A1^2+3*A1+1"
= returns expected value

Changed to:
If IsEmpty(Argument) Then
Argument is cell with not evaluated formula
...
End If

or

Debug.Print IsEmpty(Argument)
If TypeName(Argument) = "Range" Then
Argument = Cell
....
ElseIf ...
Argument = number
End If


When argument is a cell containing a formula: "=A1^2+3*A1+1"
= returns 0
