Mulitple files Open when Excel is launched

[Guest]

Each time Excel is opened, multiple files open in Excel. Some fo these files
are .xls, .MSK, .ldb, .JPG, and .txt files but insde of Excel. There are no
links are macros associated with any of these files. I just want to open
Excel and see a blank workbook. I recently was upgraded to Office 2003 but
also have a brand new box. So all files were created in Office 2000 with
WIN2K as OS. Now I have 2003 with WINXP as OS. Any suggestions.

I figured it out. In the Genral Tab under Options the At startup, open thise
all files was populated instead of the default file location box. Thanks for
responding.

Hi,
I guess there are some files in XLStart directory. Excel opens every file in XLStart directory each time it starts.
Search your computer for XLStart and look in to the found directories.

Also In Options menu, General Tab, Open every file on startup in directory (could be similar to this. I have non-english version) TextBox should be empty unless if you do not use.

Kind regards.
