Hi There,

Im changing machines and want to keep all my predefined layouts (buttons
etc) within Excel. I always thought they were stored in a .xlb file,
but cant seem to find it on a general search. Do I have the wrong
extension...?

Thanks

Darin

Typically your XLB file is here:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel
