where did my old 2000 Excel macros go when I upgraded to 2003?

I've lost all my best macros. Can I retrieve them from the old Excel 2000
location?

Do a file search for Personal.xls, which is where your global macros might
be, your current version may not be pointing to the correct location.

Macros can live in the workbooks in which they were created or in
Personal.xls.

You also could have placed the macros in a workbook and saved it as an
Add-in(*.xla)

If in Personal.xls, you must find that file and store it in your XLSTART
folder.

If in workbooks, just open those workbooks to access the macros.

If in an add-in, find it and load it through Tools>Add-ins.
