Dear All,

Have an Excel favorites group with two spreadsheets one named CurrentChecklist and one named CurrentLib in that order. However they always open the other way around ie Lib first then checklist. Lib is a bigger spreadsheet in terms of size but Checklist has more tabs.

Anyone know why?

Many thanks in advance.
Hello,
It will not open in the order as the files in the group. Do you click the "Open this group" to open it?
Thanks in advance.

Dear Jay,

Have done some more checking. I have tried opening these spreadsheets using the command line option ie "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\EXCEL.EXE" "C:\CurrentCheckList.xlsx" "C:\CurrentLib.xlsx" and adding both files to the xlstart directory.
In both cases CurrentLib opens before CheckList.
I therefore assume this is something to do with the way Windows works and not your software.

Thank for your help anyway but I will consider this query closed.
