    Double click the file for worksheet #1, which opens excel. Then open excel from your start menu, then load worksheet #2.

    You're welcome.
    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    The method above works, but it gives me trouble when I try to "paste special" from one document to the other.

    I like to restore down the main excel program and stretch it across both screens. Then open both excel files and restore them down and move one to each screen.

    I probably didn't explain that clearly.

    Ultramon is supposed to work well (but I work for a cheap company that won't let me buy it...and no dual monitors at home...so I don't have a review)

    FTW...

    For cutting, pasting an linking between workbooks (or sheets), stretching a single instance of excel across the monitors and then opening and then resizing each window to the appropriate monitor tends to work best.
