Open the template file
Hide it.
Use the immediate window to close and save it.

Now when it is opened, it should be hidden like personal.xls

I have a custom template I use to create new files. It has a toolbar
that references macros in the template file. The problem is that
when I run the macros, the template file becomes opens in the
background. How can I access the macros from the template (they're
in modules) but keep the template invisible, or is there another way
I should be using the macros? Thanks for taking your time to check
this out!
