How in the world do you configure IE8 to NOT open excel documents in its window.
There was a setting ("Browse in same window") in XP under Folder Options > File Types where you could specify the behaviour. Nothing like that exists in Vista/Windows 7. Why is that even the default behaviour? Why yes, I would like to open this excel file in the browser window with no toolbars. /sarcasm
Answer
It looks like the capability to do this was removed from the GUI in Windows 7.
Have a read of the following for instructions on how to change the behaviour via the registry to how you want it:
- How to configure Internet Explorer to open Office documents in the appropriate Office program instead of in Internet Explorer
- A new window opens when you try to view a 2007 Microsoft Office program document in Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Internet Explorer 8
