Hi,

New on XP Pro. When I have, for example, 2 or more Excel files open, the tabs disappear from the toolbar and I have to go up to Window then toggle onto the file I want. It's a pain! In W98, the tabs shrunk in size the more files I had open but it made it much more efficient to move between different files opening in the same application software.

Is there a way to have all open files stay in the toolbar?

Thanks.
 
Hi,

It's not a function of the operating system, it's a function of whatever
version of Excel you are now using. From Excel, click Windows/arrange, and
change your view here.

I still can't get the different opne excel files to show in the toolbar to toggle on and open. Any other ideas. Word works, excel does not. I'm using Office 2000

Hi Glen,

No further ideas, you should take this up in one of the Excel groups if no
one else responds.
