Default Interactive excel web page resizable?

Is there a way to make an interactive excel web page resizable with the IE
window? I'm trying to use the save as webpage functionality in Excel 2003 to
create an interactive excel spreadsheet for my users through IE; however, the
embedded excel box doesn't take up enough space in the browser and the user
is stuck messing with scroll bars. Is there a way to make the excel
spreadsheet bigger on the page?


I don't think the Excel web spreadsheet can be resized in the window.
It seems to size itself based on the IE window size (less a margin all
round). I have made the IE window as large as possible by stretching
it to the edges of my screen, (not by maximising), then closing it so
the size gets saved. Then, I create the web page from Excel. This
technique seems to give the biggest area. Your mileage may vary. It
maybe possible to adjust some parameters in the actual HTML page it
creates but I get lost every time I look at the source :-)
