two workbooks with extension .xls1 and .xls2

I clicked on something and now my original (one) workbook has opened as two
workbooks with the above listed extensions. If I do something in one, it
will appear in the other. If I close out and re- open the workbook from it's
original state, they still appear. I clicked too fast or hit something and
now I can't get it back to original form. Can you help?

Hi

You've opened a New Window (from the Window dropdown). Just close one of
your windows and save your workbook.

I tried that but it wouldn't let me close one window without the other. I'll
try it again though. Thanks!

When I first closed the window, it closed both books and when I reopened it,
it appeared as two windows again. THEN :-), I right clicked on the bottom
taskbar on one of the books and closed it that way, then I still had one
workbook open and saved that. ALL IS WELL! Thank you! I don't ever really
use two books, side by side like this so that's whyy it threw me! Thank you
again for your help! :-)

If it happens again, you may find this easier.

Select the window you don't want.
hit ctrl-w (to close it)
save your workbook in that state.
