Have you recently installed a newer version of Excel? The file may not
be in the folder Excel expects it to be. Record a macro (something simple)
and place it in the Personal workbook when asked. Close Excel. Open Excel
and do Windows - Unhide and see if Personal.xls is there. Does it have the
macro you just recorded? That's where the Personal.xls belongs. HTH Otto
