Automatically open a specific spreadsheet when opening Excel
You could put that workbook in your XLStart folder.
You could put the workbook in a folder that excel looks at when it starts.
Then change an option to tell excel to start looking there (in xl2003 menus):
Tools|Options|General tab
Put the folder name in the: At startup, open all files in:
Don't put other files in this folder--unless you want excel to try to open them.
Personally, I wouldn't do either of these.
Instead I'd open windows explorer.
Traverse to the drive/folder that contains that file.
right click on it and choose:
Send to
then choose
Desktop (create shortcut)
Then use this shortcut to start excel.
This gives me the option of not starting this workbook when I really don't want
it open.

When initially opening Excel, is there any way to have Excel open up a

I would like Excel to open a spreadsheet that I always need automatically
every single time I open up the program.
Let me know if there is any way to do this?
Thanks for your help!
