Are there any advanced formula error checking add-ins for Excel?

I often have to review large and complex models in excel and find the formula
auditing and error checking tools inadequate. Are there any add-ins which
help with this, or has anyone written macros that can review spreadsheet
fomulas?

The subroutine listed below:
Makes a new sheet when it is run
The new sheet lists the cell and a text version of the formula from the
sheet which was active when Sub was run

Try it on a dummy workbook
Not mine own but I forget where I got it from - it original coder reads this
please accept my thanks.

Sub ListFormulas()
Dim FormulaCells As Range, Cell As Range
Dim FormulaSheet As Worksheet
Dim Row As Integer

' Create a Range object for all formula cells
On Error Resume Next
Set FormulaCells = Range("A1").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, 23)

' Exit if no formulas are found
If FormulaCells Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No Formulas."
Exit Sub
End If

' Add a new worksheet
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set FormulaSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
FormulaSheet.Name = "Formulas in " & FormulaCells.Parent.Name

' Set up the column headings
With FormulaSheet
Range("A1") = "Address"
Range("B1") = "Formula"
Range("C1") = "Value"
Range("A1:C1").Font.Bold = True
End With

' Process each formula
Row = 2
For Each Cell In FormulaCells
Application.StatusBar = Format((Row - 1) / FormulaCells.Count, "0%")
With FormulaSheet
Cells(Row, 1) = Cell.Address _
(RowAbsolute:=False, ColumnAbsolute:=False)
Cells(Row, 2) = " " & Cell.Formula
Cells(Row, 3) = Cell.Value
Row = Row + 1
End With
Next Cell

' Adjust column widths
FormulaSheet.Columns("A:C").AutoFit
Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub
