Stopping the PERSONAL spreadsheet from opening at startup
 

I'm not sure what I did, but suddenly the PERSONAL file opens a spreadsheet
when I start up Excel. Before, I had access to the macros in my PERSONAL file
without a spreadsheet being open, and I'd like to get back to that setup if
possible.

Thanks!

Hi

it always opens (when you have a macro in there) but normally it opens as a
hidden file ... so start excel, ensure personal.xls is in focus and choose
window / hide from the menu, close and reopen excel and it should then be
"back to normal"
