    Possible to Open Two Seperate Instances of Excel to Allow Page Snap??

    Is it possible to open two separate instances of Excel? I want to snap the first instance to the left half of my screen and the second instance to the right half of my screen. When I open two separate instances they get put into "1" excel window. Stuck together and they go everywhere together.

    Try these methods to see of they work.. Open the 1st excel file you want then,
    SHIFT + Left Click on the Excel shortcut will to open another instance of excel which you can then move to another monitor.
    OR
    RIGHT click on the Excel icon pinned to taskbar and LEFT click Microsoft Excel 2010 will also open another instance.
