New Workbook Task Pane
I got the answer for this question in Word, but I can't seem to do the same
for Excel. When I click on File, New, I'd like it to go directly to our designed template folder in stead of giving me the task pane where I have to click "on my computer..." to get to my template folder. In Word, I reassigned File, New to "FileNewDialog" and made sure my screen tips was on and it works great. How do I do the same for Excel? -- martinson portland |

Why not put your designed templates in the Template folder? This is normally
found at C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates. You can add another button to your toolbar through Tools¦Customize...¦Commands and selecteing the top item under the File category (New...). Instead of opening a new blank worksheet, this button will display the templates available in your Template folder. Change the icon and the Name/Tooltip to prevent confusion with the New button.

Not really what I was looking for, but if that's the only solution I could
give it a try. -- martinson portland "toni.gee" wrote: Why not put your designed templates in the Template folder?
