Cannot maximize a workbook
 

I'm new to EXCEL 2007 and I was making up a report for my job and when I
reopened a file I had previously saved it only opened in a spreadsheet that
is about 2 inches by 2 inches and does not have the minus sign, folder
between the minus sign and the X or the X like a normal workbook does in the
top right corner and I cannot get it to fill the whole screen like a regular
workbook does. If someone wants to see this problem I can E-Mail this
workbook to them or if by my description someone knows why its doing this I
sure could use the help.

Cannot maximize a workbook
 

Have you set protection on the workbook?

Unprotect to get your re-sizing icons back.
