Thanks for response!

Does it mean that Personal.xls is only needed for global macros, otherwise,
Excel works fine without it?
Am I right?

Thanks!

Syed,

You can recreate the personal.xls file by recording a macro and
indicating that you want it stored in the personal.xls file.

Hello Experts,
I have Excel 97 Pro on Win98SE.

I have written some complex macros in "Personal.xls" and locked
them with a
password. Now I have forgotten the password and unable to edit
the macros.
Fortunately, I have the backup copies of the macros as *.bas
files. I can
edit and insert them into Personal.xls. But I am unable to
access its VBA
project files.
If I delete Personal.xls then will it be recreated by Excel as
it is
launched (like word does if Normal.dot is deleted)?
Or is there any other easier way to restore the "default"
Personal.xls?

Thank you,
