Try this:
ToolsOptionsView tab
Uncheck: Windows in taskbar

Does that help?

Hi,

I used to have excel configured in a way that if I have more than one
workbook open at the same time they will be together in the same excel
window, to see them I''d just had to go to the WIndow menu and select the
workbook I wanted to work on. I had before Office 2000, after I upgraded it
to 2003, all my workbooks are shown each in a different window. I don't want
to have many buttons on the taskbar, can anybody tell me how to change it
like I had it before?

Thank you.
