Hi There,

Im changing machines and want to keep all my predefined layouts (buttons
etc) within Excel. I always thought they were stored in a .xlb file,
but cant seem to find it on a general search. Do I have the wrong
extension...?

Thanks

Darin

Might be hidden/system. Include these in your Search otherwise from a cmd
window:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner>cd\

C:\>dir *.xlb /s
Volume in drive C is HP_PAVILION
Volume Serial Number is 7888-AAB4

Directory of C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel

Typically your XLB file is here:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel
