How the heck do you get to open 2 different pages at the same time, at the moment it just switches from one to the other ::b

You could always use the TABS at the bottom instead of two separate forms (copy/paste into new form afterwards if you're that bothered).

Also, with tabs, you can make cell references between pages easily.

-- Tue Jul 27, 2010 1:34 pm --

Open your first spreadsheet.

At the top right of the screen UNDER the usual screen 'restore down' sizing icon, click on the other 'restore down' button.

Now grab the bottom corner of the sheet and size the form to whatever you require.

Open another 'new' spreadsheet and repeat. Drag to place them side-by-side.

I was doing that the first time Kelly_eye, but when you open the second it replaces the first.

I can do what I want using the arrange button thanks.

The other option is Windows - arrange side by side?

I know but my computer has two buttons :-)

The first is 'arrange' where I can do Tiled, Horizontal, vertical and cascade
The second is simply arrange side by side which I find helpful if I want the two to scroll....

Plus also probably because I did not read the message properly!! :lol:

They're gradually moving everyone over to this, without actually telling most people. I don't mind, as people are calling me to help them when can no longer access their email :-)

It's the same as Googlemail basically. This should help.
