functions that don't function
 

Hi,

I am now starting to write my own VBA-UDFs. Amazing effects occur - at least
they don't fail to amaze me. I have code that should be evaluated, and I do
set a Breakpoint and initiate recalculation - nothing happens. The cell I
use for testing contains

=BruttoKV(H4;I4;J3;K4;L4)

and the code contains

Public Function BruttoKV(KVStufe As String, Status As String, Jahr As Long,
UeberStundenPauschale As Boolean, Anstellung As String) As Currency

(I tried this without all the "As"ses also). Code not executed - or so it
seams. The cell then contains #VALUE! (#WERT! in german).
I put in all types of unmeaningful testcode in the BrutoKV-function, like:

If KVStufe = "1" Then
BruttoKV = 120#
Else
BruttoKV = 0#
End If

and nothing else to be sure to see something - no change. I seem to
misunderstand something here completely. Any hints to push me in the right
direction are very much appreciated....

This is only a guess, but try to replace the semi-colons with commas in the
call in the worksheet.

=BruttoKV(H4,I4,J3,K4,L4)
in stead of
=BruttoKV(H4;I4;J3;K4;L4)

To force the function to to re-evalueate you can try using

application.volitile

Volitile meand that the function will re-calc every time a calc occures,
similar to the now function. Just a shot in the dark...
