But that's not the way MSWord works. It gives that look, but there's only one
instance of MSWord running.

The windows in taskbar setting in excel is as close as you can get with just one
instance of excel running.

How do I set up Excel to open a new instance of the Excel application, every
time I click on a spreadsheet file. The way it works now is that it just
opens another window within the same Excel application that is running. I
want it to work the same way a Word does, click on the file and a new
instance of the application opens and loads the document that you just
clicked on.
