How do I get all my customized tool bars, Personal.xls, and all the other add
ins, etc. I have on my old computer to the new computer? What files do I
need to copy, where do I find them, and where do I copy them to on the new
computer? I'd really like Excell and all the other Office products to be the
same as I have now. Help will really be appreciated as I can't even remember
all the steps and customizations I've done to get where I am today.

Here is a list from Dave Peterson...............

I have a short list of things to copy/update when we change pc's at work.

It's not complete, but may help you.

Word/Excel files:

FileName Use
custom.dic personal dictionary
*.acl personal autocorrect list
mssp2_en.exc personal exclusion dictionary
normal.dot default (for new documents) template
*.dot Any other templates you've made

*.xlb personal toolbar
book.xlt defaults for new workbooks
sheet.xlt defaults for new worksheets
personal.xl* personal macros
*.xlt Any other templates you've made

And don't forget any:
Local files (If you don’t store on LAN)
(Settings) Directories and other defaults (Tools|Options stuff)
