Try clicking on the New icon on the Standard toolbar. (My icon is the leftmost
on that toolbar--directly to the left of the open, save, print... icons.)

I am using Excel 2002 and Windows XP. I created a file called
Book.xlt in my XLStart folder and when I first startup Excel, the
defaults are applied correctly to the workbook. However, if I click
on "File, New, Blank Workbook", the new workbook does not keep my
defaults. How can I apply my defaults to all new workbooks, not just
when Excel first starts? Thank you.
