How to create default template in Excel 2002

[dstdst123]

Hey there,

I am using Excel 2002 on Window 2000 version.

I already have an Excel template called "abc".

It contains four worksheets with fonts and colors I want.

I want to save this "abc" template to the default one.

So that, when I am in Excel, I just need to click "New", this "abc"
template will come up by default.

I don't want to waste time selecting from a list of template. Just
click "new" icon.


Any way to do this?

Which folder should I tackle?

Thanks

cheers

Place it as book1.xls in the XLSTART folder.

I bet Anne meant: Book.xlt (not book1.xls)

And save it as a template file.

And don't hit the File>New...(note the ellipsis)

Just use File>New(no ellipsis) or the New File Icon.

LOL. I tested book1 and it worked. But I'm sure book would be better!
Thanks, Dave!
