Check to see if it is loaded by unhiding it in Excel. Does your windows
explorer show you hidden files? Did you search for personal.* and not
personal.xslb?

No file by that name can be found on the system !! There were over 100
'shortcuts' to it in the recent file list, but the actual Personal.xlsb
itself is nowhere to be found

Perhaps finding out where your Personal.xlsb is and renaming it to
something else so that Excel will not load it might help..

Hi,

I have just re-installed Office 2007, and now when I load Excel, the
"Visual Basic", "Macros" and "Record Macro" icons in the Developer
ribbon are grayed out and 'Alt F11' does nothing except cause a 'ping'
noise.

I previously have some Macro's stored in the Personal.xlsb and seem to
remember hiding it.

I can't now find how to get back into this area, and am at a loss on
how to recove this functionallity - anyone any ideas?
