View workbooks side by side in Excel 2007
Hello,
Is there a way to view 2 workbooks in their own window side by side in Excel 2007? I opened 2 files separately. When I use the Side by Side, it displays both workbooks in the same Excel application window. I want the file to open in their own window and to display next to each other whether it is vertical or horizontal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks |

If you're using multiple monitors, you may want to review Chip Pearson's notes:

View workbooks side by side in Excel 2007
Hi Jacob,
I did open two instances of the application. What I want to do is to Arrange the Windows so that both application windows are tiled side by side. I can't seem to get that feature to work. Somehow Excel keeps placing the two files (that I open separately in their own Excel Application) side by side but inside ONE Excel application window. Do you know how to get two instances of the application windows to appear side by side without manually resizing the window application and place them side by side? Thanks for your help.

There is no functionality within excel to do this. The side by side works
only within the application. -- If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Bagia" wrote: Hi Jacob, I did open two instances of the application.

Thanks for your suggestion Dave. I will keep that in mind when I have
multiple monitors.
