    Open Excel when Windows Starts

    just how the title reads. Is there anyway to have a particualr Excel sheet open right away when you start up windows, instead of having to click to it to open.

    OR if possible can Excel just be opened right away when windows starts instead of a specific excel sheet.?

    You would have to drag the excel icon to your startup folder which will start excel on windows start, and in your PERSONAL.exe (a hidden excel file) in the WorkBook_Open event (in the thisworkbook module) you would need to have the workbook.opem filename:= etc.

    In lieu of the open event procedure, if you can, move the spreadsheet to the XLstart folder in the Program files folder. There's also an option in the Tools->options dialog to open all files in xxx folder.
