Hello
I installed office 2013. Now if i open any excel file (double click) it will open in a new window. If I try to open an new file by going to file-->open, again it will open a new window. If i close a file by clicking on red x, it will close the entire excel not that file only.
Is there anyway to change that? I want to open all files in the same window. Thanks
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Hi,

[FONT=&quot]Try doing this : Office button > Excel Options, then Advanced, scroll down to General, then uncheck Ignore Other Applications that use DDE.
