Default Set default row height in Excel 2003?

Greetings,

In Excel 2003, how do we set the row height as "20" and set the column
widths to automatically accomodate the length of the cell entry?

Thanks

Default Set default row height in Excel 2003?

To create a workbook and a worksheet template

Open a new workbook. Customize fonts as you wish through
FormatStyleNormalModify

FileSave As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your
workbook "BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT.

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

This will be the default workbook for FileNew or the Toolbar button FileNew or
CTRL + n

WARNING................Do not use FileNew...Blank Workbook or you will get the
Excel default workbook.

NOTE: Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default InsertSheet.

More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).
