Hallo Newsgroup!
I am wanting to write a function using VBA - but I don't know why.
Please can someone help?

Simple example in a standard module...

Public Function AddTwoNumbers(FirstNum As Double, SecondNum As Double) As
Double
AddTwoNumbers = FirstNum + SecondNum
End Function

Testing in the Immediate pane of the debug window...

?AddTwoNumbers(12.5, 6.25) <Enter>
18.75

Of course for more complex functions you would also need error handling and
proper house cleaning code if you open any objects, etc..

You took Don P Mellon's bait, Rick.

Should have read it more carefully... he didn't ask "how", he asked "why" he
wanted to write a function in VBA.

It'll be interesting, I guess, to see if/how Mellon, aka Schittlipz, follows
up, now that he's "been busted."

I saw the "why" and assumed it was a second language goof. Oh well.
