The Excel-DNA IntelliSense add-in provides on-sheet IntelliSense for UDFs from Excel-DNA add-ins, VBA projects and other .xll-based add-ins.

The IntelliSense extension can run in two display modes:

  • Independent mode, using the standalone ExcelDna.IntelliSense.xll add-in from this release.
  • Integrated mode, where the IntelliSense library ExcelDna.IntelliSense.dll is provided as part of another Excel-DNA add-in - this library can be added to a project via the ExcelDna.IntelliSense package.

This version of the IntelliSense extension is supported on:

  • Excel 2010 and later (use ExcelDna.IntelliSense64.xll for the 64-bit version of Excel)
  • Windows 7 and later

On-sheet IntelliSense is automatically enabled for Excel-DNA add-ins built with v0.32 or later, and will show the same descriptions as in the Function Arguments dialog (extracted from ExcelFunction, ExcelArgument and Description attributes). Options to provide descriptions for VBA functions and other .xll add-ins are described in the Getting Started page.

Please ask questions and provide feedback via the Excel-DNA Google group.
