Works 2000: Two Spreadsheets Appear in One Window

This article was previously published under Q239192

SYMPTOMS

When you drag a Microsoft Works 2000 Spreadsheet document onto the Microsoft Windows desktop, it is possible to have two spreadsheets open in the same window. Works 2000 is a single document interface (SDI) program, but it is possible to make it act like a multiple document interface (MDI) program under certain circumstances.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur when you save two versions of a spreadsheet as scrap files on the Windows desktop, have each of these scrap files open at the same time, and then click Tile on the Window menu of each file.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
