| 631092 | 2008-01-16 20:06:00 | right I have 4 philips monitors. I want to open 3 Excel spreadsheets at the same time. Currently when I do it the latter opened file takes the focus in the existing window. How do I set Excel up so that when I open the individual spreadsheet files they open in their own window and I can move them to whichever monitor I want. cheers |

Right click on an empty space on the taskbar 2. Select "properties" 3. Untick "Group similar taskbar buttons" 4. Click "Apply" 5. Click "OK" This should allow all Excell workbooks to have their own entry on the taskbar and make moving them easier. HTH |
