Default Startup Workbook

Kent

Book.xlt will not open upon startup.

This is a Template(*.xlt) and only appears when adding a new workbook.

Make a copy of that book.xlt and save as a regular *.xls file........startup.xls

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

I have preferred format for my start-up workbook. I have it saved in the
book.xlt file the XLSTART folder. I recently changed machines. I save my
book.xlt to the xlstart folder but I now get a different file when excel
starts up. The book.xlt works fine when adding a new workbook, the only
problem is the startup file. Any ideas?
