Thank you for your reply.
Actually, I already tried that, but I could not find a "normal.xlt"
template, like there is for the word main template. I know that I can make
"a" template, but I want to change "the" template. Do you know where the
main blank workbook template is stored?

Hi,

is there any way to change the excel "new" (blank) template, like you can
with Word? The reason I ask is that I would like each new excel workbook to
automatically be formatted with all the cells in "date" format, instead of
"general". Is this possible?
