JP, thank you. This works when starting excel. My problem is once I'm in
excel and I want to open a NEW document from the menu bar, it opens a new
document wihout my desired settings. I guess I can just select FILE and open
the initial document again, as long as it was one of my recent documents.

I guess I'm being lazy.

How do you change the default settings on a new excel doc so that when you
open a new doc it contains the settings (especially the page set-ups) you
want? I can change the settings on the doc which opens @ start-up, but once
I'm in excel, when I open a new doc it doesn't have the setting I need.
