I am not sure I completely understand your senario below. Are you hitting
the large X in the far upper right corner and not the small one just below
the big one? If you hit the large X you should be thrown all the way out of
Excel.

If I open up another workbook (for example "MyWorkbook.xlsx)
"personal.xlsx" is opened behind the scenes. All is great with the
world. When I close out "MyWorkbook.xlsx", "personal.xlsx" is still
open and I can see it. (The window is hidden, but Excel is kept
open. If I only ever had "MyWorkbook.xlsx" open, then if I want to
get out of Excel I have to close things out TWICE, once for
"MyWorkbook.xlsx" and one for "personal.xlsx". That, from a user
standpoint, could be a little annoying. I was wondering if there was
a way around that.
