Multiple windows
When opening files in Excel, it only opens a new file in
the existing window. I am not able to seperate the windows. ie. I am not able to get more than one icon on the task bar. (office 2000 on Win 2000sp4). Is there an setting somewhere? Cheers, Mike

The main effect I want is to have seperate icons on the
start bar for each open window. -----Original Message----- When opening files in Excel, it only opens a new file in the existing window. I am not able to seperate the windows. ie.

AFAIK Only way to get this done in 2000 is to open an entire new instance of
Excel -- which can cause a real drag on your resources I believe this premiered in Excel 2002 (XP). If you are looking for a quick way to go between files -- CTRL + TAB works quite well "Michael van Coppenhagen" wrote in message ... : When opening files in Excel, it only opens a new file in : the existing window.

Tools|options|View|Check Windows in taskbar
(or didn't that work) Do you use shared workbooks? If so, there's a bug in xl2k that's been fixed in xl2002 that played with that setting.
