Windows XP Pro SP2
Excel 2002 SP3


For some reason Personal.xls isn't opening with Excel. The file exists, and
it's located he

C:\Documents and Settings\My User Account\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel

Any ideas why or why not?

Try putting it in the XLStart folder at that location.

xl2002+ has the abililty to quarantine what it thinks are bad workbooks.

They can keep track of them so that it doesn't even try to open them.

If you look under Help|About MS Excel, you'll see a button called: "Disabled
Items...".

Check under there to see if it's marked not to open. You can enable it there,
too.

If the workbook is really bad, you may want to delete that copy and put a copy
of your backup version into your XLStart folder.

(If you don't have a backup, take the time now and create one.)
