Make Office retain settings
How can I make it so that certain Microsoft Office settings will remain in place even after that Office application has been closed and opened again?
For example in Excel I often need to search all workbooks in a certain file for a certain word.
This is something that Excel doesn't do by default since by default it will only search within the sheet that you are currently in.
So I will go into the Find function and then I have to change the Within value from Sheet to Workbook.
So how can I make it so that these kinds of custom settings will always remain the default settings whenever I open the Office program?

What version of Office? You know you can set a number of these settings in Options... For example, Smart Quotes is big one that catches people in Technology..

Isn't there any other way of doing this such as creating a default template that will apply to all Excel documents that are opened and created?
