Grouping Workbooks Into One Window
Hi, I am running Office XP on my computer. After I first installed Excel, whenever I opened a workbook it would open in a separate window. Now, they all open in one Excel window and I have to go up to the 'Window' toolbar to switch between workbooks. I am working with workbooks that I have to constantly switch between so this gets very frustrating at times. How can I configure it back to the way it was before? Thanks in advance!

I believe that if you were to start another instance of Excel (Start -
Programs - Select Excel), it will do what you want. "Raman325" wrote: Hi, I am running Office XP on my computer.

Grouping Workbooks Into One Window
It used to do it everytime I opened a new workbook automatically and I was hoping to get it to work like that again if possible. Thank you for your suggestion though. By the way, Word still does that (opens each document in a new window) so I'm guessing its a setting somewhere. -- Raman325 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Raman325's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=24748 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=545632 |

Grouping Workbooks Into One Window
If you really mean separate windows of the same excel application:
Tools|Options|view tab|check windows in task bar. Remember that ctrl-tab (or ctrl-F6) will swap between open workbooks in the same instance of excel very quickly.

Thanks for the help Dave! I didn't know about the Ctrl-Tab feature but I do now -- Raman325 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Raman325's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=24748 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=545632 |
