Default open file in different window

I need to find out how to make new excel files open in a completely seperate
excel program window. So when you open a new excel file, it will open a
completely new excel program and have another taskbar at the bottom. We are
using multiple screens and need to have several worksheets fully open at the
same time. Any ideas?

Excel will use an open instance of Excel, if it finds one, when a workbook
is double-clicked. So instead, open Excel from the Start menu multiple
times. Then in each instance use File, Open to pick the workbook it
displays..
