This relies on Excel being maximised before closing. It will then reopen
maximised (ie to fill the screen).

See if this is what you are looking for. It has to go into the WorkBook
Module,
and macros have to be enabled.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'Opens workbook to full screen
Application.DisplayFullScreen = True
End Sub
