This course covers how to create a custom function (sometimes called an UDF or user-defined function) in Excel. A custom function is a calculation that the user creates and names. This custom function is then stored in Excel and can recalled when it is needed. In this course, we will be using the Visual Basic Editor and using a couple of VBA keywords; however, this is NOT a VBA or programming course. You will create a couple of different custom functions and then see how to create an Add-ins file so that these functions can be used in all your workbooks.
