#NAME? means that Excel doesn't recognize the name of a range or a function
.... Is it possible the formula you are storing in personal.xls refers to a
range name that is not in personal.xls?  If your formula refers to a range
name, then that name must exist either in the open workbook or in
personal.xls or you will get this error

I have written a function that while I have Personal.xls open, it works in
that spreadsheet. When I close it, hide it; I thought it that function was
supposed to be available to *all* sheets? So far, that is not the case. When
I try to use the function in another sheet, I get #NAME? as result.

I checked the Microsoft Knowledge Base, and it suggested I change my
security level to "Low."  That bothers me, as I sometimes have to open
unknown email for the company to do volunteer work for. Is there another way
to make a function available to every workbook I open, but still maintain
good security settings?

Thanks.

Robert
