D Dave Peterson Apr 28, 2008 #2 Just to add to edvwvw's reply... You can create a template workbook named book.xlt and store it in your XLStart folder. Excel will use that for new workbooks when you start excel and when you click on the New Icon on the Standard toolbar (xl2003 or lower). If you're using xl2007, you can add that New icon to the QAT so that you can use that template file.
