Excel won't open maximized

Anonymous

Tried setting the starup icon properties to start maximised. Tried setting registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\Options\Maximized to 0x00000003

All to no avail. I've sen the prob reported on lots fo other forums but it's always the solutions noted aboive that are suggested, and jsut as reported on those forums, they don't resolve the issue with Excel 2010.

This has been there since Office 2010 was released and SP1 did nothing to fix it. I wouldn't get my hopes up.

You have to create a personal workbook first. Have a look at this side, especially the section "How do you create the file if it does not exist:"

http://www.rondebruin.nl/personal.htm

After you create your personal workbook, place the code into the codemodule "ThisWorkbook" in that file.
