Default Personal.xls Will Not Hide

Okay; thanks. I'll try that next.

No thanks. I don't think it would help.

Are you sure you're opening the save version of personal.xls that you've just
saved?

Open excel so that personal.xls is visible.
go into the VBE and show the immediate window.
type this and hit enter
?workbooks("personal.xls").fullname
make a note of the path and filename.

Then save it once more using the .save line in the immediate window

The close excel and reopen it.
Go into the VBE and do the .fullname stuff again.

Do they match?

We are going to the Window menu and choosing, "Hide."

How are you (or that user) trying to hide the window?

I'd try:
Make personal.xls the activeworkbook
Window|hide (in xl2003 menus)
Then close excel.

You should be prompted to save personal.xls -- make sure that you choose Yes so
that personal.xls remains hidden.

Has anyone ever heard of a personal.xls file that refuses to hide? I have a
user whose file will not stay hidden. It closes instead.
