PERSONAL.xls
The above file is more of a nuisance than a problem;
however, it has been known to get very annoying. The problem is that each time I open the Excel 2000 application, it loads/opens the PERSONAL.xls file first. I have removed this file from the XLSTART folder and re- booted the PC, but with no success. The PERSONAL.xls file keeps opening with the application. I have also tried to search for associated links, but the Links Selection in the Edit pull down menu remains "ghosted". Again, this is more of a nuisance rather than a problem with the applications functionality. Any help will be appreciated.

PERSONAL.xls
You may have more than one XLSTART folder on your computer and more than one
Personal.xls If you don't want it to open hidden then look for another XLSTART folder and a seconf version of Personal.xls.
