Is it possible in Microsoft Excel 2013+ (the plus currently means 2016 too) to open multiple sheets in the very same work space? Basically View=>Split but for different worksheets.
The reason I ask is because when I put multiple sheets besides each other I can't use alt+tab to see both windows. I have to re-arrange them every time I go to a non Excel window and then go back.
You can view multiple worksheets using the instructions below.
View two worksheets in the same workbook side by side
On the View tab, in the Window group, click New Window.
On the View tab, in the Window group, click View Side by Side
.
In the workbook window, click the worksheets that you want to compare.
To scroll both worksheets at the same time, click Synchronous Scrolling
in the Window group on the View tab.
Note: This option is available only when View Side by Side is turned on.
