Have you recently upgraded your versions of excel?

Newer versions of excel like to calculate older versions when they open them.

Try saving the personal.xls file and see if you get that same message the next
time.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone here has come across this problem. I have an
extensive personal.xls file that reads into excel at startup with no
problem. The problem is that I'm constantly getting asked if I want to
save personal.xls upon exiting even when I do not alter my macros. I
can open excel and simultaneously close it with no steps in between and
get the following popup,

"Do you want to save the changes you made to the Personal Macro
Workbook? If you click Yes, the macros will be available the next time
you start Microsoft Office Excel."

Any insights will be greatly appreciated.

Steve
