Sorry for creating an new topic, but I'm not able to reply to that post.
Is it possible to get parameter infos when typing UDFs in formular bars or cells?

Thanks in advance

Hi Andreas,

In http://www.add-in-express.com/docs/net-excel-udf-tips.php#doesnot-show-descriptions, we wrote:

When the user enters a formula in the Formula Bar, neither Excel Automation add-ins nor XLL add-ins show function descriptions as well as descriptions of function parameters (available for XLLs only). Debugging this problem shows that Excel just doesn't call any methods responsible for providing that info.
