I have MS Office Excel 2003.

Is there an addin i can DL to restore it? It so inconvenient. It was much
easier to switch between Excel files through the taskbar rather than within
Excel toolbar.

What version of excel are you using?

xl2k has a bug that turns off windows in taskbar when you open a shared

I dont know how i lost the ability, but i used to be able to open excel files
as separate windows. Now, it seems everytime i open a new file, it opens
within Excel and i have to go through "Windows" in the toolbar to switch
between files. Is there any way to restore the aboilty to open each ecel
file as a separate window?
