No, no special operation is required to open two or more files.
Open works exactly the same with two monitors as it does with
one.

Thanks, I was hoping it was possible but before I invested in
another monitor
and video card, I guess my question nows begs how to open two
separte files?
I have always seen only one with the second reduced to the
bottom toolbar. Is
there some reconfiguring to do?

TIA

I have a three monitor setup (3 NEC flat panel displays
controlled by a Matrox Parahelia video card) and Excel works
fine. You can either maximize Excel on one monitor, or stretch
Excel out across all monitors (to column BG in my case). You
can
also stretch the Excel application across all monitors and
display a separate worksheet in each monitor.

You don't have to have two (or more) instances of Excel
running
to take advantage of multi-monitor setups. Excel handles
multiple
monitors just fine.

Hi,
Does anybody know if Excel 2003 can support the use of dual
monitors?
I'm guessing that it involves separate simultaneous starts
of
two files and
that that may be the limiting factor.

Anybody have any experience in this reagrd?

TIA
