Multiple items when ALT + Tab

Why is it that if I have one spreadsheet open and I go to
switch to another application with alt + tab I see two
instances of Excel. One of the icons has the program
icon and is labeled "Microsoft Excel - Spreadsheet Name"
and the other is represented by a worksheet icon
with "File Name". Kind of annoying when flipping back
and forth frequently. I think Word does this as well.
 
You're using xl2k or xl2002?

It sounds like you have Tools|Options|View|Windows in Taskbar enabled.

This gives excel that same single document interface that Word has.

(I don't like it, so I've unchecked that box.)
