<hr style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#FFFFFF" size="1"> Hello. I just swtiched to Excel 2010. Back then when I used 2007, when I want to compare workbooks (one from my saved documents and one from email directly), I will open two Excel instances. I will open the first workbook on the first instance then click on the second instance and go to my email to open the spreadsheet. The workbook from my email will automatically pop up on the second excel instance. But with 2010, even if I click on the second excel instance, when I open a workbook from my email, it still pops up in the first instance. Can you please help?

How do I open one workbook from my email to pop up on separate excel instance so that I can compare it on two different screens?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

I'm working in X10 at home and work and I do not have this problem.
Maybe this is something to do with the option you have selected.
My advice is to open one instance then go to your email open the spreadsheet and then open second instance with the spreadsheet you would like to compare.

Maybe this is not what you want but will work[/FONT]
