I like the function in Word which allows me to run several windows/programs
at the same time. This make it possible to for example work with two
documents at the same time on two different screens. I can not find this
possibility in PP. When opening two files, they always opens in the same
window. Have anyone figured out how to make it possible two work with several
files in different windows? Thanks for responding.
 
After opening the two files, select Window > Arrange All.
You can then resize the window to your preference.

Thanks for responding on this subject, but I see I need to make my question
more precise. I now about this possibility, but this is not what I want. I
want several PowerPoint-windows at the same time. When opening a new Word
document, this is opening in another Word window (a new program). Also what
happens with Explorer when running several pages. On the "applicationline"
lowest on the screen I have several porgramsrunning, several Word/Explorer
and so on. but when opening a new PP document, all documents opens in the
same program. This makes it diffficult to work on two screens for example. Is
there any possibilities to make new PP documents also open in a new
PP-window/program (nut sure what word is correct window/program).

thank you

It's not a problem of your question being imprecise. It's simply that PowerPoint
*will not* do precisely what you want. The suggestion you've gotten is the best
(and to my knowledge only) runner-up. I realize that Word and Explorer behave
differently. Different programs have different features and behaviors. That's just
how it goes, I'm afraid
