I am having to write some macros in the older XLM language (because I need this to work also on Excel 2008 for Mac which now has no VBA and you can't do Excel UDFs in Applescript). Everything is fine except for one thing:
I have a defined-name macro which calls =ALERT() to open a pop-up. It never appears, however. If I call this line directly as a macro, it does appear. Is there some reason why perhaps defined-name XLM UDFs can't pop-up ALERTS? Same problem trying to use MESSAGE(). Everything else in XLM seems to work fine.
