Remarks

Important: This function has been replaced with one or more new functions that may provide improved accuracy and whose names better reflect their usage. This function is still available for compatibility with earlier versions of Excel. However, if backward compatibility is not required, you should consider using the new functions from now on, because they more accurately describe their functionality. For more information about the new function, see the Erf_Precise(Object) method.

If lower_limit is nonnumeric, Erf returns the #VALUE! error value.

If lower_limit is negative, Erf returns the #NUM! error value.

If upper_limit is nonnumeric, Erf returns the #VALUE! error value.

If upper_limit is negative, Erf returns the #NUM! error value.
