2 excel windows opened

F

Hi, I'm tryng to accomplish something difficult to explain:
If you open a workbook (ex. hello.xls) and the you go to file-->open another
file (ex. hello2.xls) then you have hello.xls and hello2.xls in the same
excel window, but if you open hello.xls ant then you go to the excels general
icon (the one that opens an excel window with a new woorkbook on it) ant
then you choose file-->open hello2.xls then you have 2 excel windows, now my
problem: I have my firs book hello.xls with all the menu bars disabled but
the woorkbook hello2.xls needs all the menu bars enabled so if I open my
workbook as explained on the second way to open the file I can have my file
hello.xls without the menu bars and hello2.xls with all the menu bars
enabled; BUT I NEED TO OPEN EXCELS GENERAL ICON TO ACHIVE THIS, I mean, I
cant paste a shortcut in the desktop because when I open the second file, it
opens in the excels window of my first file.
It's very important that the user of my program could open the file from the
desktop, so there is a way to do what I want?????
If you want to see an example of what I mean firts open a excel file (any)
and then go to Iexplorer browser and choose the export data to excel
(pressindg the right button of your mouse and choosing the option mentioned),
as you can see not just a new workbook has been opened but a entire excel new
window (with his own workbook)
Hope this have sence, TIA
