Hi All
Can anyone advise the following three questions regarding using an application developed in Excel 2003 English version, when run on a French version of Excel. 1. The PERSONAL.xls is checked by name on opening, if it is open the application closes it. Does this have the same or different name in the French system? 2. I use a few instances of Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum(), will this still work in the VBA code if run in Excel France or does it need to change? 3. I store and then change, Application Options and ActiveWindow settings, and refer to these by name e.g. Application.DisplayFormulaBar = False ActiveWindow.DisplayVerticalScrollBar = True Will I have to change the names as they appear differently in the Excel French user interface, or are the values constant when called from within VBA? Thanks for any advice |

Is differend with other systems (dutch system: persnlk.xls) 2.

As I understand it, there is nothing inherently special about
"Personal.xls", or whatever it's name in any language. It is merely a WB installed by default in the XLSTART folder. You can delete or rename yours to anything. You can check for WBs that open upon Excel start up in : Application.StartupPath Application.AltStartupPath Depends what the aim is. NickHK "Nigel RS" ...

Thanks for the tip - you're right it coud be called anything. Using the
startup folders will be more fooolproof Cheers "NickHK" wrote: As I understand it, there is nothing inherently special about "Personal.xls", or whatever it's name in any language.
