Good afternoon,

The answer to this is probably simple but its got me stumped!

We have a number of users who when they open an excel workbook, have a numnber in brackets after the workbook name in the title bar e.g.

Sales 2006(1).xls

Can anyone tell me what the (1) signifies please?

Thank you in advance.
Aftab.
 
means a workbook has been saved with 2 windows open

If you look in the "Window" menu, you should see that there is Sales 2006(1).xls & Sales 2006(2).xls

simply close one of the windows and then save the workbook

Rgds, Geoff

We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours but they all live in the same box.
