How to create a simple VBA Custom Function
Through Insert | Name | Define, I can create a name (for example MyRatio)
to hold the value 2.53. In VBA, how can I create a function to hold this value? I know nothing about creating Custom VBA Function and is trying to learn from this simple example. Lets give the function the name MyRatio and I need it to hold any value with 2 decimals. Its ok to hardcode the value within the function procedure as I will edit the value in VBA whenver the rate changes. Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot -- Edmund (Using Excel XP) |

How to create a simple VBA Custom Function
tmingfai,
You can not define a Function in a cell or range of a spreadsheet. I think you can define it in a Class Module, but I've never done that. In a nutshell, the difference between a Macro and a Function is that macros perform actions while Functions return a value. Functions don't *do* anything.

How to create a simple VBA Custom Function
If you're intending to call function macros from a spreadsheet, you
should put them in a standard module. |
