Really, it doesn't matter what folder you put it in, as long as excel is CONFIGURED to open the files in that folder.
Find out what folder Excel has in the setting "open all files in this folder:" Then put Personal.xlsb in that folder. I have mine on a shared network folder so that it is available at whichever computer I'm working on.

I want to take the macros written for that user, and place the workbook (personal.xlsb) in the folder where they will start automatically like the old system did. I tried putting it in the following location, but no luck getting it to open. C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE12\ - then both xlstart and startup Is there another file, or location to solve this?
