set default zoom for a user profile

[blaqb0x]

Hi,

How can I set the default zoom for a user's profile when looking at excel
sheets?
I'll probably be using Office 2003.

Thanks,

In network installations Excel usually makes itself a folder under the user
profile, (in my case)

C:\Documents and Settings\Nick Hodge\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\

In XP this folder is hidden below the user name. Below this folder is one
called XLStart. If you set up Excel as you want it to open and save the
file in this folder as a template called Book.xlt and then do the same with
a file saved as a template called Sheet.xlt. Excel will open with these
settings (Book.xlt) and it will also apply to any sheets added subsequently
to the workbook (sheet.xlt). They are in effect user-defined start-up
templates
