Change views using the Views list or by repeatedly clicking the Views button to cycle through the available views.

You can have more than one workbook open at a time. Each workbook opens in its own Excel application window.

NOTE Excel displays the names of the 25 most recently opened workbooks at the right of the File tab screen. When you click a file name in the list, the corresponding workbook opens. You can use the Excel Options Advanced page to change the number of workbooks, up to 50, that appear in the list. Ensure that your favorite documents never disappear from the Recent Documents list by clicking the pin icon to the right of the document name in the list. This is a great time saver for opening frequently-used documents stored in a variety of different folders. You can unpin a document at any time by clicking the icon again.
