Default Problem with maximize button on Microsoft Word

garfield-n-odie
Thank you so much for your help. This worked perfectly. I really
appreciate you getting back to me. I'd tried all sorts of stuff and woudn't
have even thought of your suggestion.
Thanks a heap.
Kind regards,
Ben

I previously offered the following suggestion (which had worked
for me) to another poster with the same problem:

"If you are using Word as your email editor in Outlook, try
turning off that feature, Restore Down your Word window, Maximize
your Word window, and then turn on Word as your email editor in
Outlook again."

and he subsequently replied:

"Worked great for me. but i had to turn off Word as Editior,
close outlook, close word, open word, maximize, open outlook,
turn on feature. The only difference was shutting down outlook
for a second. Everything now works fine."

So now you have two possible solutions, both of which have fixed
the problem for different people.

Hi, This is the first time I've asked a question so I hope I do this right.
I have Office Professional Edition 2003 and when I am using Word, if I click
on the Maximize button to make Word full screen, the top of Word (Blue bar
with Document name, Minimize, Maximize and Close Button) is down a third of
the screen from the top and the bottom bar (where page number, etc are) and
part of the lower part of the document are off the bottom of my screen. How
can I get word to open in Maximized veiw properly?
Thanks very much for your help.
Kind regards,
Ben
