    It's almost like the phone call just disconnected in mid sentence.

    hrmmhhh.. No idea what happened to the Original Post. I typed the whole thing. odd

    anyway, She messed up a very large departmental spreadsheet so a couple hundred hyperlinks were re-directed to her local data folder rather than the network share. I fixed it by creating a custom macro (several times) to restore the broken links. I had to do this for numerous file paths.

    Ever since I did this, my Excel on my laptop is messed up. Whenever I open any spreadsheet, a second workbook, name "Personal", opens up. I think this "personal" book is the original macro or something. I've tried everything I can think of and tinker with to stop this behavior to no avail. I am not overly skilled in Excel and am kinda hoping one of you can shed some light on this issue. Google was no help.


    Thanks

    Close Excel, kill any running process.
    Look for .xlb and .xlt files under your profile.
    Back them up for safety and delete them.

    Also go to permissions and stop macros running, look for my templates and check for the path - you might have the wrong path now.
