Newer versions of Excel from 2000 onwards have an option.

ToolsOptionsViewWindows in Taskbar. Check it on.

If i open an Excel file by double clicking it and then open another by
double clicking it too, both excel files end up in the same window by
default. I want each one to open in its own Excel window by default when i
double click them so i have a separate button on my taskbar for each. The
obvious work around is to open an instance of Excel first for each file,
then browse through excel to open each file, but that's more time
consuming. I was wondering if anyone knows how to get each excel file to
open in its own window when i double click them. Any ideas?

Thanks,
