Excel automatically opens two files when loading

[blaksnm]

Hi
I am in trouble.
When I start up Excel program two files are automaticly open (the same every time).
I have no clue how to fix this problem, but it might have a connection to a macro I used som days ago:

Reinstall MS Excel?
Please help

The problem is to find somewhere in the macros below:

Option Explicit

Maybe:
- check if you have Excel files in one of the XLSTART folders in your profile (they are hidden folders)
- check in menu Options / Advanced / section General / "At startup ..." if there is a folder listed.
