How to view MS Excel on Dual Monitors

Excel opens multiple spreadsheets within one “shell,” which is sort of frustrating to people who use two monitors – rather defeats the purpose. The workaround is pretty simple. I blushed that it took me so long to figure it out, but you may be just as slow as I am so here it is:

Open Excel. Drag it to your extra monitor. Open it again. Reread what I just said – don’t make a new workbook…open it again. Bingo – one on each monitor. You can freely drag and drop between them.
