personal.xlsb file not loading when Excel starts up
I created a new macro and stored it in the personal macro workbook. When I open the XLSTART folder I see the personal.xlsb file with the correct time stamp. But when I shut down excel and reopen it the personal.xlsb does not load and so when I go to run a macro from it excel does not show it as being available. If I shut down excel, then double click on the personal.xlsb file it opens excel and I now see the macros. So what has me stumped is why it is not automatically loading when I start up excel. I have checked all the setting and all macros are enabled, etc.
Can you please try doing the following
1. Back-up your personal macro workbook (PMW)
2. Create the new workbook & make new PMW
3. copy the codes from your back-up PMW and paste into new one.
hope this should fix the issue

ExcelExciting I have at least 20 modules of code to copy from old personal.xlsb to the new file. Is there a quick way to do that?
