Default "Duplicate" Personal.xls

I save all my macros in the Personal.xls document.

Today,when trying to run a macro, I get the message:

"A document with the name PERSONAL .XLS is already open. You cannot
open to two documents with the same name, even if the documents are in
different folders. To open the second document, either close the
document thats currently open, or rename one of the documents"

What do I do, as there is only one Personal.xls document in it's
original folder, hidden.

Thanks

However you started that macro, a toolbutton perhaps, has a different path
to your Personal. It may or may not actually exist at that location but the
shortcut points there. You're going to have to investigate this and point
it to the right location.
