When I open an existing excel worksheet, it automatically duplicates itself.
It shows on the bottom of the screen the same worksheet name with a 1 and
then another worksheet with the same name but with a 2. How do I stop that
from happening. Also, when I make changes in the orignal worksheet, the same
changes take place in the second worksheet as well.

The above just means an extra window(s) was opened
for the same workbook (via Window New Window)

Try the steps below to restore things to "normal"

Click Window Arrange Tiled OK
Now click the "x" button in the top right corner of one window to close it
(if more than one window, just "x" until you are left with only one)
Then click the "maximise" button to the left of the "x" to
maximise this last one.
Save the file.
