Add non-Excel functions ?

 
Dear experts,
	I am wonder if is it possible to add non-excel simple function, ie
user-defined functions and have FormulaParser evaluate it.

Thanks.

Khanh Tran,

In general, the answer is no. Function names are
actually mapped to an "index" which is a numeric
value. For built-in functions these values are known.

However, can you elaborate further about what function
you are intending to use? Are you able to use that
function in an application (such as Excel or
OpenOffice)?
