I have a coworker who when he opens a file, and looks under the windo
tab, two files of the same name show up separated by colon and
number.

e.g. file:1 and file:2

by switching from "version" 1 and 2, file is identical in both window
and seems to be embedded in properties.

He says he accidentaly hit some keys and it did this and I can't seem
to be able to recreate this.

Does anyone know what this function is?

Thank
 
If you choose Window>New, another window in the same workbook will open,
and the windows are numbered.

To close the extra window, click the lower of the two X buttons in the
upper right corner of the screen (don't click the top X button, as that
will close Excel). There are instructions (and a picture) here:
