    Excel default workbook

    I am using Excel on a Macbook Pro. Version 16.81. I want to set up a default workbook but can't figure out where to put the standard workbook so that it opens whenever I open Excel. Can anyone help?

    Thanks.

    John

    Put it in the xlstart folder.

    Not sure where that is located in a MAC, but in a windows machine

    C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART\

    You may have to research that a bit.

    Thanks for your help. That folder works for windows computers but I'm on a MacBook Pro.
