How can I reset "save as" screen to come up small, not full screen
I unknowingly did something that has caused a change in how the "save as"
window comes up when trying to save a Word document. Now, it comes up in a full-screen view when before the view was small. In this full-screen view one can't grab the lower corner to shrink the screen to the desired size. This problem is only occurring within Word, not with any other programs. What did I do and how can I change it back to a smaller view? Thank you! Product Version Word 2003 SP2 / Professional Edition |

Well, it's a relatively recent innovation (possibly introduced as recently
as Word 2002). There are several dialogs that are resizable; you can tell which ones by the diagonal lines in the bottom right corner. Those that are resizable can also be maximized by double-clicking the title bar. I find this especially helpful for the Select Recipients dialog in a mail merge. -- Suzanne S.

Me either. I think I got it from Suzanne. (And I went to St. Louis for
the weekend, and the hotel had free WiFi only in the lobby, and one can only run off the battery for so long!)
