Default How to open Word in user-preferred size ("Restore Down")

Thanks, but I didn't give enough info (wasn't really sure until now, though):
Resize works as you describe until shutdown/restart; then all settings re
Resize (again, for Word only - not other MS Office apps) are lost.

Try this. Open Word, open a document, resize the window to your requirements.
Do a small edit in the document, save the document. Close the document, close
the window.
Cross-fingers, open Word application, and hey-presto....

Word 2003 (11.8202.8172) SP opens as maximized window; Restore Down,
resizing, etc does not 'stay' when app is closed, reopened.
Excel, Access, et al, all open per previous user size selections/settings -
whether I want them to or not.

Past 3 hours of search proves I'm incapable of parsing this question.
Suggestions there as well? [be nice; I test well above average, at least.]
Thanks,
