How can I eliminate multiple instances of spreadsheets upon openin
 

Sounds like you used Windows | New Window at some time
Close one of the views of the worksheet
Save the workbook
Now open and see if the problem went away, if not please tell us more but
use this white space not just the Subject box
best wishes

Multiples of same workbook?

Multiple workbooks?

Please use this large white area known as the "body" to describe what
occurs.

Your Subject text gets cut off after "openin"

Sorry about the abbreviated description.

When I open excel two new spreadsheets start-up. When I go to view macros
their names are listed in the Macro's In drop down menu. The delete button is
ghosted so I can't delete them. (I already did this.)

They are separate work sheets, complicating the problem is if I sent a
worksheet via email the recipient receives the additional worksheets when
they open the excel worksheet I sent.

I deleted all data from the two worksheets so they are blank.

You already have another thread going.

Please try to decide what you want a "spreadsheet" to be.

You talk of sending a worksheet and recipient receives additional
worksheets. Not possible.

Spreadsheet is a generic term for applications like Excel.

Excel has workbooks which can contain multiple worksheets.

You actually mean "workbooks" don't you?

"another thread going" means you have this same question under a separate
posting.

I do not understand your description of your problem.

You say when you open Excel two new workbooks start up and "their names are
listed in Macro's dropdown menu"

What names are listed?

Do you have Personal.xls(b) opening when you open a workbook?

If you sent a workbook to a recipient they would not receive Personal.xls(b)
along with it.

Please try to ascertain the filenames of the workbooks that are opening and
post that here.
