Have you tried checking Tools-Options-View-Windows in Taskbar?

Does that functionality give you what you're seeking?

No not at all, I need to be able to have two instances running with

HELP

I use multiple monitors and often have to work on a number of files
at the same time.

Word allows me to have multiple windows open and I can mimise them
(each one) to the task bar as and when they are not needed.

I need to be able to do the same in EXCEl !!!!!

Does any one have a nice workaround, other than a number of short
cuts to dummy files "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\EXCEL.EXE" / c:\dummy\file1.xls. As to date this my
only way has been to open a new instance of EXCEL and then selecting
the file I actually want.

I am sure there must be a simple setting, but I just can not find it.

Thanks in advance
