This Is Probably Something Simple

[NeedsHelp2]

If I have three workbooks open on my laptop then they are all shown seperatly in the task bar. If I have three workbooks open on my PC then they appear to be in a group. The only difference between the two machines is one has Windows XP and the other NT.

Can anyone let me know how to show the workbooks seperatly?

Thanks

There are two possible solutions.

1. Right click on a 'clean' bit of the taskbar and select properties. then uncheck the box that says 'group similar taskbar buttons'

2. If this is already unchecked or doesn't work then go into Excel>Tools>Options, go to the 'view' tab and check the 'windows in taskbar' box.

hope of them works for you.
