These commands behave exactly the same way as they do in Entourage (see Out of Office).
New Window
Opens a new window on the same file that’s currently open—a duplicate view of the same spreadsheet. This arrangement lets you view two (or more) places in the same file at the same time, scrolled to different spots and zoomed independently.
Arrange
Arranges all open windows so that at least a portion of each is visible—which makes switching or dragging data between open files much easier. An Arrange Windows dialog box opens, where you can set how those windows are arranged (Tiled, Horizontal, Vertical, or Cascade).
Hide
Hides the frontmost workbook window without closing it.
Unhide
Displays a list of windows that have been hidden with the Hide command, which you can then Unhide.
Split
Splits the active window horizontally and vertically into four, independently scrolling panes. If the currently active window has been split, this menu command changes to Remove Split.

That way, those panes stay in place while you scroll the lower right panes—it keeps column and row titles visible while you scroll through your worksheet. (None of this affects how the sheet prints.) This command changes to Unfreeze Panes if you have already frozen the panes on the sheet.
