Default simple question about macros

Hi

I' ve got few macros binded to one excell file. Problem is that i want to
make them visible for all other excell sheets on my computer. Is there a way
to do this? Maybe there is a directory I must copy my macros into or
something else must be done...

thanks for any reply

Marcin

Marcin

Copy the macros you have to your "Personal.xls" workbook. This file
finds itself in the "XLStart" folder.

The files in this folder open every time you start Excel, thus making
your macros available during your session. (It's usually hidden from
view so you don't know it's open).

The workbook with the macros should be open in Excel at the same time as the
other workbooks. Excel provides for this by using a workbook named
personal.xls. This is located in the xlstart directory and any file placed
there is automatically opened by excel when excel opens. It is also hidden
(window=Hide). You could also just locate your current workbook in the
Excel Start and optionally hide it if you want.

In any event, the public macros for any open workbook are visible in
Tools=macros=Macro
