Excel upgrade to 2002
I have created numerous Macros in Excel 2000, stored in the Personal.XLS file.
After upgrading to Excel 2002, when I attempt to run these macros assigned to an Active-X button I get the error: "Personal.XLS is already open. You cannot open 2 documents with the same name." If I close the Personal.XLS first, the macros run O.K. What are the differences between Excel 2000 and Excel 2002 for running Macros? Thanks for your help. Garry |

Excel upgrade to 2002
It's probably trying to pick up a Personal.xls in another location.
Re-assign all the ActiveX controls to their macros. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Garry J" wrote in message ...

That was my first thought. I have searched for this file name in all System
Folders, Hidden Files, and Sub Folders. It only occurs 1 time in the XLSTART directory. Any other thoughts? "Bob Phillips" wrote: It's probably trying to pick up a Personal.xls in another location.

Garry,
Try re-assigning them anyway. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Garry J" wrote in message ... That was my first thought.

Thanks, Bob
That did the trick. It was still looking in the old Excel 2000 directory.
