I opened a file today that did not open maximized by default like my other
files and it doesn't have the maximize, minimize and close icons on the top
right of the blue bar. When I open any other file it opens maximized. Did
I inadvertently screw up a setting on this file somewhere? The file
contains macros and it opens the same way whether I enable or disable the
macros.

Thanks for any suggestions,
Gary Beard

This can be caused by Workbook protection (Tools, Protection, Unprotect
Workbook would turn it off).

Hello Gary,

When you close a file, it remembers the settings. Since you posted this
question in an Excel newsgroup, I will assume these files are Excel
Workbooks. Excel opens the workbook in another window. If the workbook
window is maximized, the title bar (blue bar) disappears. The buttons
are then moved below Excels title bar buttons on the right. If these
are missing, I suspect the macros may be responsible for the buttons
disappearing. Check the code.

Sincerely,
Leith Ross

Jim,
I thought the same thing and turned off the protection and still had the
problem.


Thanks for the response,
Gary Beard

Leith,
The only thing in the macros are routines to sort and copy data from one
sheet to another (one by alphabetical order and the other by numeric order).
The workbook was protected...I thought I only protected the worksheet.

Thanks again for your help Leith,
Gary Beard

Jim,
The workbook WAS protected...I thought I just had the worksheet protected.
Thanks for the help! I really appreciate it!
