Nick:
Thanks. Is there a way to have Excel open without the default Book1.xls
showing but having the Task Pane show?
I followed the instructions you provided and I do get the Task Pane but I am
still getting the default Workbook Book1.xls.

When I open Excel, the Task Pane appears briefly and then is replaced by
the
default workbook Book 1.xls.
I would like to have Excel open with no workbook showing and with the the
Task Pane showing.
Under ToolsOptionsView, I have checked the "Startup Task Pane".
