I just started creating some functions, not sure why I ignored this functionality but they are really handy.

I had a very simple one I figured I would just port over to the personal workbook and be able to use, but it seems functions are not as functional as macros, in that I can't access the function outside of the workbook it is located in.

Is there a way around this? How do you access a function in your personal workbook?

In order to use the function you have to precede the function name with PERSONAL.XLSB!

I never have to do it that way. I just enter =something() And yes the function is in my Personal Workbook only
