1. If you want multiple views of the same document/spreadsheet: first, use the 
Window>New Window menu option in Writer or Calc to open a new window containing 
a copy of your document. Then use your window manager to arrange the windows as 
you like. If you are using MS Windows then *it* is your window manager. You can 
move the windows around, re-size them, tile them etc.You can scroll each window 
separately to give you views of different parts of your document/spreadsheet 
and you can enter/edit data from either window.

If you want multiple different documents open at the same time, just open the 
second document - it will open in a new window - and then arrange/re-size the 
windows as you like.

2. What does "totalise" mean? I have never heard the word before and I can't 
find it in my Chambers dictionary.
