Please suggest a method for displaying two separate Excel 2007 windows
rather than two spreadsheets within one window. |

Thank you, that'll work. I have been opening two spreadsheets by double-clicking the files themselves and they always loaded into one Excel window. |

Hi, badgolferman.
FYI: With Excel 2010, the Jump List feature will let you do this easily. Just highlight Excel 2010 in the Start menu, choose one spreadsheet from the Jump List; then repeat, choosing the second spreadsheet. Two instances of Excel appear in the Taskbar and can be accessed independently of each other. (Yes, a third, fourth, etc., can be added in the same way.) I don't recall if Excel 2007 had Jump Lists.

I'd also move one to the left of the screen and the other to the right as discussed in the "Half Screen" thread yesterday. -- James Silverton, Potomac I'm *not* |

Thanks - I tried this, and it also works in my Excel 2003. Who knew? (OK, Rob knew!) R. C. White's jump list suggestion seems not to work on this old version, but heck, it's nice to have any method that works for me. -- Gene E. Bloch (Stumbling Bloch) |
