Re-read my post about how to get the Book.xlt to open as default.

Is the client following those rules?

Does client want Book.xlt to open automatically when Excel is started?

Book.xlt will not open unless manually opened even if stored in the XLSTART
folder

To have a default customized workbook open with Excel it must be a customized
Book.xls, not a Template(*.xlt)

Do not use File...NewBlank workbook or you will get the Excel default workbook.

Use FileNew(no ellipsis) or CTRL + n or the New File Icon.

Hi, All

Please help me out i am using Excel 2003 i want to open default excel file
with some settings so for that i have created boo.xlt file in the XLstart
folder of excel on path

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

Its working fine on many systems but on some systems its not working when i
open the excel on that system it open excel file with default excel settings
not the same as my book.xlt.

I have just check that book.xlt is there at right path and also when i open
the Blank Workbook it open diffrent file with diffrent settings as i know it
should be same as my book.xlt as book.xlt is dafault excel template file.
Please suggest why it is showing this behaviour
