Rob: When I click a custom button to call a macro, it pops up an error
message saying "Excel can't open two files of the same name." It's looking
for the PERSONAL.XLS that holds all my macros. On my Win2K machine, that
was C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\XLStart\Personal.xls, which is
what Customize shows when I right-click on a button. On XP, with Office XP,
that folder and file do not exist. I even created that folder and dropped
my Personal into it.
So that's why I'm saying I need to globally change the address-to-look-to
for all my macro buttons. And now I'm wondering if that will also affect
macros and functions called within other macros. Any help you can give is
greatly appreciated.

Hi Ed,
I'm not totally clear what you're asking. If you mean that you have
set
a reference to the personal.xls VBProject in a bunch of workbooks and now
that reference says MISSING, then you'll have to go through each workbook
that has this problem, uncheck the reference, close the Tools/References
dialog, then go back in a re-select the reference. If this isn't what you
mean, can you be more specific?

IT just changed me from Office 2K and Windows 2K to Office and
Windows
XP.

Just discovered all my macros are addressed for Win/XL2K to look for
Personal.XLS in a folder that doesn't exist any more! Personal.XLS is
now
stored in a different location. How do I do a global change on 39
modules
to make them point to the new location?
