Your method worked, and was surprisingly easy for me to do. The file that is displayed inside the second window shows as: "filename :2 OpenOffice Calc". The edits that I do in one window's displayed file are immediately replicated in the other window's displayed file. AWESOME ! Scrolling in one window's displayed file is independent of the other window's displayed file. I can live with that. Thank you again. Regards, VinceB.

OpenOffice will open the second Calc widow on top of the first. Pull it into the second monitor. Setting up a computer to use two monitors is a problem to be addressed at operating system level. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
