asked on open two excel 2010 sheets at the same time in different screens
How to open two different excel 2010 spreadsheets at the same time at the same computer individually?
I have two monitors, the main one and the extended one. and i want to be able to see the both sheets at the same time one the main monitor and the other in the extended one, for comparison work.
I have tried many things, but excel 2010 keeps one sheet open and the other is always minimized under it!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks

Have you tried this:

It should work with extended to second monitor desktop. You will not have 2 ribbons, of course
