Still only pop's up the existing open occurance of Excel.

This is driving me nuts since we found a check box to resolve this issue
about 6 months ago. However, forgot to document the solution. :(

Yep, what I do does that!

Try running it from the Start menu, or failing that, from the Excel.Exe
file.

Unfortunately, out out of the box set-up only opens a new spreadsheet in

the
same open Excel instance if you click the desktop Excel icon. Our customer
wants to have two seperate instances of Excel 2003 open that can each open
multiple spreadsheets.

I have seen this before, but now unable to find the answer.

How do you set-up Excel 2003 to launch a seperate instance of Excel on

the
desktop (run two Excel applications of the same version at the same

time)?

Note: I am not asking about seperate spreadsheets, but application
instances
itself.

Thank you!
