Forgot to close XL compare side by side
I forgot to close 'compare side by side' when coming out of two spreadsheets,
and now when I re-open them both, they will only open to a half screen. The XL 'background' is ok, just the worksheet that is half size. Also, the compare option is now greyed out so I can't close it retrospectively. -- Ann |

Forgot to close XL compare side by side
Hit the maximize or restore button on the workbook.
Save and you're OK on that workbook Compare side by side will be grayed out unless you have two windows open. You can compare side by side two sheets(or more) in the same workbook or sheets from two workbooks(or more) Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 22 Apr 2009 07:48:01 -0700, Ann wrote: I forgot to close 'compare side by side' when coming out of two spreadsheets, and now when I re-open them both, they will only open to a half screen.

Forgot to close XL compare side by side
Hi
There's no maximise or restore button available to me! The XL 'background' is still full size, just the actual workbook is minimised, with an inability to move it, or to get to the window close icon (not the XL one). It won't maximise, via any method that I've tried! Is there a way of resizing, without having to copy and paste all the worksheets (there are more than 20) to a new document? -- Ann "Gord Dibben" wrote: Hit the maximize or restore button on the workbook.
