Hi All,
is it possible to have 2 excels working at the same time (same versions)?
i need to run reports first thing in the morning via macros, which takes about 5min to run. while the macro is running, i cant do anything with excel. is there a way that i can run my macro although still use excel to do other excel tasks?

thanks
Samuel
 

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
• Open the first instance of Excel
• While Holding down [ALT]
- Right-Click the Excel icon
- Select Excel
- A prompt will display asking if you want
to open a new instance

Does that help?
