Hi Jan Karel,

Yes I am familiar with it and its change in description as we have gone
through previous XL versions.
I thought it had just "disappeared" in XL2007 - like a few other things.
Many thanks

Hi Roger,

add it to the "open all files from" folder
I had never noticed that feature in the General section of Advanced
options

It is one which used to cause frequent posts of people wondering why
all of a sudden excel opened up with all their files from the my
documents folder (back then, the name of the beast in Tools, options
was a bit obscure, something like "alternate startup file location",
luring the users to believe that they could use that to set a default
folder which would be used on file, open).
