Viewing 2 seperate spreadsheets on the screen simultaneously
 

How do I view two seperate spreadsheets simultaneously? (I have Office 2003.)
My problem is when I attempt to do this, the 2nd spreadsheet opens within
the spreadsheet I already have open. When I attempt to close one of the
spreadsheets, it simply closes all excel programs at once. I know I can split
the screen in half, and view them side by side in the same excel sheet, but
that is not what I want. I want to be able to open and close each spreadsheet
as a seperate spreadsheet.
Is this a setting that I don't know about? I never had this issue with
Office 2002.

Why not just open excel twice, select desired speadsheets and then
semi-minimise them.

That X in the top right corner of the application window works differently for
excel and word.

You'll want to train yourself not to use it to close a single workbook. In
excel it closes the application.
