I have separate text files that need separate editing at the same time always.

I would like to find a way to have Excel open each file in a downward column so that I can edit each line side by side.
Example would be, I need to go to line 40 in row one, change some text, tab to row 40 on next column to edit and then tab to row 3 line 40 to edit text. Then be able to save and it save each separate rows still as it's original text file.

I hope that makes sense.

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
