For all new workbooks to have the color-coded tabs.........

Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish. FileSave As Type: scroll down
to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your workbook "BOOK"(no quotes).
Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT.

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

This will be the default workbook for FileNew or when you click on the New
Icon on the Standard Toolbar.

Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default InsertSheet.

More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).

I have a user that wants to color code her worksheet tabs. I know that you
can individually color code each one by right-clicking. Is there a way to
have excel launch with each tab set to a color (ex. sheet 1=red,
sheet2=green, sheet3=yellow, etc.)? She wants this to launch this way every
time. Thanks.
