I have a pc with a dual video card with my desktop extended. How can I have
one excel spreadsheet open on each screen. Excel 2000 would allow me to open
it up multiple times and I could drag them where I wanted. Excel 2003 will
not allow me to open it up more than once. I can open multiple spreadsheets
but cannot drag them outside the excel window.

Open Excel, open spreadsheet1. Open Excel again, in it open spreadsheet2.
You now have two separate Excel windows to arrange as you see fit.

The problem is excel will only open one time. But what we did is just made
the excel window spread accross both screens and then we were able to put two
spreadsheets side by side and be able to read them. In office 2000 it would
let us open it multiple times, with office 2003 it will only open one time.
It will let you open multiple spreadsheets but not the excel application
itself.

Funny, I have multiple copies of Excel open right now (both 2000 and 2003).
You must specifically open Excel, then load your data file. You cannot
achieve this by double-clicking multiple data files.
