When recording a new macro in excel I want to select the relative reference
button in the stop recording box, but the stop recording box does not popup;
it's no where to be found. Everything I've read on-line says it just
appears, but it doesn't on my system.

It works fine on my co-workers machine, and he has the same system as mine.
We are both running Windows XP, with excel version 2003.
 
hi,
not sure why it isn't popping up on your machine. it does on mine. but you
can access it anyway.

Tools>customize>toolbar tab>check stop recording

scroll down....it's near the bottom. you can call it anytime, recording or
not.

Start recording a new macro.
Right-click the top toolbar.
Click on 'Stop recording'
The 'Stop recording' toolbar should now appear.

A user probably closed the 'Stop recording' toolbar with the 'X'.
You must be in 'Record New Macro' mode for the 'Stop recording'
menu to be made available.

Thank you; that was it. By checking the box in Tools>customize>toolbar
tab>check stop recording, the stop recording box, along with the relative
reference button now pops up.

Man, I was really getting frustrated, what an easy fix!
