Help function in VB

calculus87 · Sep 4, 2003

If I understand correctly, in the background of Microsofts Excel VB is running in the background. Now I have put a formula into one of the excel cells (very basic).

When I go to insert funtion, there is a list of functions, and right below that reads help: and then it is blank and you can choose a function. I would like to be able to input some text after the help: so that I can remember later on what the function did or was for.

Now I think that I go into the VB background and create a macros. And in the head of the function I made I should be able to insert some help command, but I am not sure what it is.

Okay, thank you for your time and effort
Sincerely,
David

David:
At www.theofficeexperts.com/downloads.htm, under Excel, I created a Word doc from all the funcs in Excel (it's really just a copy of the help file). In it, you could put whatever you want.

I don't know if there's any way to have the help files show a UDF (user-defined function) that's been created in VBA. I doubt it.

When asking questions, you may want to specify VBA instead of VB. VB is its own programming language, while VBA is VB for Applications, which is VB limited to the application objects, methods, and properties.

Okay Dreamboat,
I went to the website link that you placed above, and it said that the site has moved to a unix based server which means that it is case sensitive. Could you you send me the link over again? thanks

It's the comma behind the link that kept it from working. Try this one:
