Change Startup workbook

[Gene Augustin]

I created a workbook template with all the formats, logos, layouts, etc that
I want to use most of the time. I want this to be the default workbook for
NEW or on opening EXCEL.

I have put copies in the MY TEMPLATES folder, OFFICE>STARTUP>EXCEL both as
Workbook.xlt and Workbook.xls

It still defaults to the Microsoft default template.

Save it as BOOK.XLT in the folder XLStart:

Name it BOOK.xlt and store it in the XLSTART folder.

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

Will be default book for New workbooks.

Note: do not choose from New...Blank Workbook.

New(no ellipsis) or CTRL + n or New Icon

You can also place a template named SHEET.xlt to have a default
Insert>Worksheet.

You should save it as Book.xlt into your excel start folder
In XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application
Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
