Excel 2000 on Windows 2000 - Files in separate windows

[Jackie Parker]

For some reason, Excel 2000 is now working at 97 whereby
each file is opening in the same window, having to be
accessed through the Window menu. I am not getting
separate tabs for each file.

This is happening as a result of opening 4 files at the
same time.

Please could someone help.

Thanks.

Jackie

Tools>Options>View. "Windows in Taskbar" must be checked.

Also from Debra Dalgleish...............

The following MSKB article may help:

OFF2000: Only One Icon Visible in Taskbar When "Windows in Taskbar"
Option Is Selected

Or, if it's a shared workbook, it's probably a bug, that's been fixed in
Excel 2002:

Thanks for the reply. Is this something that "can just
happen", as the machines had been fine and, as far as I am
aware, the option has never been into to be switched off?

Unfortunately the support page didn't help, as the
machines have W2K on them.
