Default Run function

Hello,
I made a function, this function returns a value that i would like to put in
a certain cell.

In a cell you can put for example =now() then the field is filled with the
date and time.
If I do this with my function, just write in a cell "=begindate()", the
cell returns #NAME?.
How can I solve this?

Default Run function

The function should be in a standard module, not in a sheet module.
Alt-F11 to go to the VB Editor
InsertModule
enter your function
Alt-F11 to return to the worksheet

If you still have problems, post your function

That works, thanks a lot.

And if you want to run a function from startup of a sheet, or refresh(f9) of
the page.
Is there an event you can use?
