I have an XLLModule embedded in my Add-in project. I would like to modify the properties of an Excel function description (AdxExcelFunctionDescriptor) via code during run-time. For example, I want to change the visibility and description of a function.

I've tried changing properties as follows:
XLLModule1.CurrentInstance.AdxExcelFunctionDescriptor1.Description = "Test Description"
XLLModule1.CurrentInstance.AdxExcelFunctionDescriptor1.FunctionName = "Test Name"
XLLModule1.CurrentInstance.AdxExcelFunctionDescriptor1.IsHidden = False

But the changes don't seem to take effect during run-time.
Is this possible to do?

Thanks,
Matt

Hello Matt,

This isn't possible. The underlying Excel C API doesn't provide a means for this.
