I am currently running Windows 7 and have Office 2010. I have dual monitors and would like to be able to open up two separate excel files to compare / edit if need be, one on each monitor. Every time I open up two files it puts them in the same window / monitor and I can't get them separated onto two windows / monitors.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Open two copies of Excel from the start menu and arrange each on a different monitor. You can open separate files from there. I do it all the time so hopefully, this works for you too.
