minimized excel worksheet cannot drag or maximize
 
uThe data in my spreadsheet (excel 2007) is in a small window on the screen,
but it will not allow me to simply drag at the corner to expand the view
becase the edges that you can drag by are hideen. I am not sure how I got
in this view but I cannot get it back to normal view.
I have seen this question posted many times and the general answer is to
unprotect the worksheet. However, I checked and the worksheet is not
protected, so that is not the solution in this case. Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Andrew

Do you have the maximize/minimize buttons on the top right corner? If
you click "Arrange All" on the Ribbon (View tab) can you change to a
different view that gets you the ability to resize it again?

Yes!!!! That worked. Probably one of the few commands that I did not look at,
but I knew there must be a simple solution somewhere.
Thank you so much. You have no idea how annoying that was (or maybe you do).

It can also be caused by protecting the work book in excel 2003!!!!!!!!
