Excel 2003, Insert Function, create full name & descriptions
 

Function is the most powerful feature in Excel so why not make browse the
functions more verbose.
There is room to add names & descriptions in the selection window. Right
now it is blank and you have to click each formula code to see what it is and
read a long description of what it does, it would be better with a Windows
Explorer Details format using Industry Standard names & short description.

Example:
Code | Name | Description
FV | Future Value | Returns of future value . . .
PV | Present Value | Returns of present value . . .

This would make it much easier to scroll, browse, find, & discover all the
other functions.

Presently they are represented by abbreviations.
