I don't do it often, but have had occasion to have GC side-by-side on 2 data files at the same time. What I have done is start a 2nd instance of GC, let it warn me that the data file is in use already, select open read-only then file-> open to the second data file. (I have 6 in regular use). But I'm on Linux, don't know it that would work the same on any WinOs flavour. Agree 100% about keeping each data file in its own sub-directory, and about not changing prefs while 2 instances are running!
