    2nd Excel Window open automatically if I opened specific spreadsheet

    Hi,

    I am using an excel spreadsheet for couple of months to track my inventories. It was going well but it is opening another excel window every time I open my spreadsheet. It is not PERSONAL spreadsheet that excel has for macro. If I closed the opened excel window, it closed my excel spreadsheet as well. Also, if any other excel spreadsheet is opened already, then no excel window has been open if I open my spreadsheet. This error is happening only with this spreadsheet. I mean if I open any spreadsheet except that one, then no additional window has been opened. How to fix this? Please help.

    I have added an screenshot of additional window.

    Thank You
    Roman

    .
    You will need to supply all of the code that is in the workbook.

    A pic doesn't provide any usable information.

    I am afraid that is not possible. The spreadsheet contains lot of company information. But can't we identify the reason of such issues?

    Thanks

    You can always provide a mock up of the existing workbook, without confidential information. Just enough data to make it run.

    But can't we identify the reason of such issues?
    It would be a looooong guessing game.

    Hi

    I too suffer the horrible 2nd blank and grey window. I think I have found it has something to do with where the spreadsheet is saved -- if on my local drive there is no 2nd window -- if out there in the cloud -- One Drive, Sharepoint, etc. -- then up pops the 2nd window. I have also found that opening a local saved file first and then from OnLine the window does not appear --- at least this is my experience.
