I created a spreadsheet in the usual way, when I use the spreadsheet the file
name adds a :2 following the name.xls. When I close the file the :2
disappear. This is not causing me any problems I've not seen this before and
curious if it's something I've done.

Thank you

check <Window and see if there is a "...xls:1"
you may just have two windows for the same file showing if you close one of
them and save the file the :2 should go away.

It's caused by using Window|New window.

This is very nice if you want to see different portions of a worksheet at the
same time. You make a new window and use window|arrange to see both windows.

You can even use to see two different worksheets of the same workbook at the
same time.

To close one of these windows, just click on the one you don't want and hit
ctrl-w.

(Save it the way you like or you'll be doing it again.)
