Default xls:1 but no xls:2

Hi,

I have a workbook which opens with the window title

filename.xls:1

as if there are two or more views of the same workbook. However, there is only one view I can find (I have minimised the window within Excel, looked for other Excel windows but to no avail).

When I try to close the file (ctrl-w or clicking the lower x) the workbook disappears (as expected) but Excel behaves as if I have just closed one of several views: it doesn't ask me if I would like to save changes. However, when I close the Excel program, it behaves as if I am closing filename.xls and asks if I want to save changes. As I work with a large number of Excel files at any one time, this can become confusing and could lead to saving stuff that I didn't want to save or losing changes I have made.

In case it helps, if I set up a new view with Window - New Window, I get

filename.xls:3

implying that number 2 is floating around somewhere, I just can't find it.

Any ideas?

Dave
