hi,
in excel, there are 2 X's. the big red X closes excel and all worksheets.
the small black x under the big red X closes the active work sheet only and
leaves the rest of the worksheets open.

When I open an excel document, excel opens the document in the same instance
of excel. When you close excel, it closes all open workbooks. I would like
to be able to close the instance of excel that I am working in (by hitting
the top X) and continue to work on seperate excel documents that are open.
This works in Word, but not in excel. Any ideas on how to fix this one?
Thank you!
