Personal.xls opens as a separateworkbook

[gtaborda]

Hi there

When I open an excel sheet, automatically Personal.xls opens first, then (on aspearate instance of Excel) the sheet I am actually trying to open, shows up.

So I end up with two Excels open at the same time, the personal.xls and the actual sheet I want.

i am currently running some global macros which I have created in personal.xls however since I "touched" the personal.xls file, I get this problem everytime...

Any ideas how to stop this ?

thanks in advance

Check Tools>General tab and see if anything is listed in the "At Start up open all files in" field.

Hope that helps

Is it a separate instance or separate window? 'Personal' is by default hidden, maybe by accident its window was made visible. If so, hide it again (window>hide).
