Default XLT vs XLS

Any version of Excel including 2007

any way to the xlt thing?
A related question: *What is the benefit of making a file an xlt file? *I
realize that you don't want to change the original xlt file, but if the code
opens that file, changes it, and then savesAS another xls name, does it make
any difference if the original is an xlt or xls? *Thanks for your time to
educate me a bit. *Otto


I have had a great deal of trouble in trying to use my VBA projects
(written with Excel 2003) in Excel 2007. I have found that Excel 2007
erases all of my code. I have been trying to run a project as an xlt,
which opens and saves to an xls file. I have not yet been able to do
it.
