Default current cell in user-defined function

Is the current cell (not the active cell) available in a
user defined function? For instance, can I say

public function foo()

' Give me the row of the worksheet cell where this
' function is entered

end function

Thanks

Julio,

You can't get the cell details (AFAIK), but you could pass it to the
function, for example

Function foo(rng As Range)
If rng.Count = 1 Then
foo = rng.Row
End If
End Function

and call it like so
=foo(A24)

By making it a relative reference, it will update as you copy to other
cells.

Hi,

Use Application.Caller property.

Function CellRow()
CellAddress = Application.Caller.Row
End Function

when you enter that function in a cell it gives the row number of cell where the function is entered.
