Hi

In Excel 2003, is there an option to open files in individual (multiple)
windows, as in word. I can do it manually by launching a new version of
excel and then opening the new document in it, but this is a hassel

Thanks
 
OK - follow up question

In my version of word, it is the windows in the taskbar option which
controls whether I get multiple windows or all documents in a single one. In
excel, ticking/unticking this option does not have the same effect. When
ticked, I certainly get the files listed on the task bar, but still in the
same window

Any ideas ?

Thanks
 
Excel has tools|options|view tab|Windows in taskbar, but that is all under one
instance of excel.

If you really want separate instances of excel, then you'll still have to go
through the hassle of starting another instance.
 
Thanks Dave

Trawling the other newsgroups seemd to suggest this, but I found it hard to
believe that Bill would include such a sueful feature in one major app in
Office 2003, but not in others.
