Extra Microsoft Excel icon in my dock

from Stardock Forums
When I open a Microsoft Excel document, I get an extra Excel icon in the window section of my dock. This doesn' seem to happen with Word. Anyone know how I can get rid of this extra icon?

Thanks.

I'm not seeing that here. Which version of Office and which version of ObjectDock?

I assume you're referring to the running tasks section?

Are you sure that you aren't opening two instances of Excel?  Or are you running some crazy macro or template? I seem to recall seeing this a few versions back but don't recall for sure.

I'm using v1.9 of Objectdock, and 2007 Enterprise Edition of Excel. I don't think I'm running any "crazy macro or template," since the document I am editing is very simple. I just open up an excel document normally and then I see two icons. One icon only has the file name above it, i.e. "Tables.xlsx," while the other says "Microsoft Excel - Tables.xlsx."

And yes, I'm referring to the "Running tasks" section.
