Hello again

Is it possible to use a function that as been declared in a module directly in a cell

Code:
Declare Function GV_GetNamedString Lib "C:\Program Files (x86)\TS Support\MultiCharts\GlobalVariable.dll" _
                                    (ByVal strElementLoc As String, ByVal strOther As String) As String
When I'm editing a formula in a cell, I see the function as available, but it give me an "#Value" error

Code:
Formula for cell ("D18") =GV_GetNamedString("DataString"; "Error")
In VBA, the formula work and the appropriate value is captured in a variable
