Add In target directories
 
I just created an Add-in. When I saved the the xls file
as an xla file, Excel automatically saved it in

C\Douments and Setting\My name\Application
Data\Microsoft\Add Ins

I am trying to update the XLA but cannot seem to find this
directory in My Computer. Perhaps there is limited access
to the folder through my IS department. Although I was
able to create the XLA in the folder from Excel.

Is it possible to convert the XLA file back to an XLS file
so that I can make the changes, and then save it back to
an XLA file (in Excel) which will then be automatically
saved in the directory above?

Hi

This is a hidden folder
ToolsFolder options..View and change it

Is it possible to convert the XLA file back to an XLS file

Selcet your Add-in thisworkbook module in the VBA editor
In the properties(F4) set IsAddin to false
