Default Global macros

I need to record a global macro -- one that is available in all worksheets of
all Excel 2003 workbooks on my computer. Any suggestions?

Record the macro and store it in your Personal.xls file.

Ken

When you start recording a dialog pops up allowing you to name the new macro and
where to put it. Choose Personal Macro Workbook.

If you don't have one, Excel will create it and store it in XLSTART folder.

When you start Excel, Personal.xls will also open giving you Global macros.

You can hide Personal.xls through WindowsHide. Save and it will open hidden
but available.
