Where is the default excel (office 2003) template located?

Excel does not natively have a default template. The default workbook you
get on starting Excel is not based on any file on disk (natively). You can
create a default template however and Excel will base new workbooks (and the
startup workbook) on it.

If you had one its name would be BOOK.XLT and it would likely be found at:

C:\Documents and Settings\<user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel
