    How do I display "Help" Text in my own functions

    Hi All,

    I am designing my own functions and was wondering how I add the “Help” text that appears at the bottom of the grey box you see when you double click the funtion name.

    EG for the =sum function you see “Adds all the numbers in a range of cells”. Below this there is also text giving information on each argument.

    Hos do I code this?

    Regards
    Garry

    You can add a description for your function. Try this. Hit Alt-F8 (or
    however you bring up the Macro box,) since you are dealing with a function,
    its name won't appear so you have to type it in. When you do, you should be
    able to choose Options. Click Options and enter your description. However,
    last I heard there is no way to give help for your argument list.
