How do I change the default file of type from shortcuts in the fa.

When opening files via your favourites in Excel 2003, the default file type
is shortcut and I can only access excel files by change the file of type each
time. Is there a way I can set this function to automatically look at excel
files whenever I open up excel?

I think these dialogs try to help you by remembering what you did last time.

This is slightly quicker for me: Instead of using the dropdown and looking for
the excel files, I'll just type:
*.xls
in the filename box and hit enter.

(or even *.xl* if you need .xlt, .xla and .xls....)
