hmm

Multiple-window view
 
I view my worksheet in two tiled windows, and save the view. When I recall
the view, I only get one of the windows back.

How do I save a view to recall all the windows?

Thanks Nick.

There is problem with recalling a workspace: instead of rearranging the
open workbook, Excel tells me it can't open two documents with the same name.
I have to close the workbook just to view it the way I want! I was hoping
for a better solution; I guess this is it, unless you know a way around this
problem.

Are you viewing two windows of the same workbook? (Via WindowNew window and
Windowarrange...). This should only then open one 'view' of the current
workbook in two windows. Is that not what you need?

Yes, that is what I am doing; yes, it is what I need. But if the workbook is
already open, I must close it before opening the workspace. I was looking to
avoid that inconvenience, if possible.

Does it not just open the way you close it? I fear I'm missing something
here

Suppose I save a workspace, with the multiple windows and whatever else.
After defining it, I continue to work on the same workbook. Now I want to
recall the saved workspace. If I try, Excel will tell me it cannot open two
workbooks with the same name. Therefore, I must close the workbook every
time I want to see it from a different workspace perspective. This constant
closing and re-opening is what I am trying to avoid, if there is any way
possible.

Anytime you try to open two workbooks at the same time your options will be
limited, so if you mean can you save multiple views. Not that I am aware for
windows, although you can say views of filters, etc
