Have you tried View Side By Side on the View tab?

OK, I call semi-PEBCAK on myself; one needs to simply launch another
instance of Excel to be able to manage and manipulate separate spreadsheet
windows...

Guess I'm always trying to do things the hard way! :-)

I do have that checked, but i can't seem to open two different
spreadsheets
and manipulate their windows independently... (i can select them
individually
from the taskbar, but when i select one, the other disappears...)

Is this PEBCAK?

Or is this how Excel 07 works?

Thanks for the suggestion!

In Excel 2007, how can we view separate spreadsheets in separate
windows?
This has *got* to be simple, but darn if I can find a setting for
it...

A nice example of what we can to do is to tile multiple spreadsheets
or
view
two side-by-side (NOT using "View Side By Side" in the View
ribbon)...

Thanks in advance for any tips!
