You identified the problem!!! I watched Excel start up and sure enough,
Book1 appeared and disappeared. I then went into the addins menu option
under Tools and unchecked each add-in until I found the rogue program
that was changing the book from 1 to 2. I have turned it off and now my
Book1 appears again. THANKS!!!!!

Try looking in

C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\Application
Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

and deleting a book2.xls if it is there.  Excel will launch any file it
finds in there.

Also, if Book1 appears momentarily, then goes away and is replaced by
Book2, there might be some issue with an add-in losing or opening the
files.

Finally, if the behaviour goes away with a reboot it would be because
there was another instance of Excel already open (maybe not visible)
which had used up Book1.=20

Subject: [mso] Getting Book1 back

For some reason, every time I open Excel, I start with Book2 and not
Book1. I suspect I have saved a workbook as Book1 and now the program
defaults to the next number. Is there anyway to get Book1 back? Where
does the program look when it decides which book number to start with?
