I'm running this at work and everytime I open it from the taskbar or desktop , it opens in a small window. How do I reset it to open in full view?
It seems to have happened after several annoyong popups a few days ago. I've checked the Internet properties and can not find anything.

If you are running it from a desktop icon/or launch programs.
1. Right click icon
2. Select properties
3. Look for the "RUN" text box.
4. Select Maximized - options are Normal Window,Minimized, Maximized

Good luck,

Ray

Tried that already.
I provided some wrong info earlier. It only seems to to be doing it if I open IE with the shortcuts I made by right clicking on the FTE page and clicking "Create Shortcut".
I can maximize the window but it's annoying.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-16-03 AT 04:48 PM (EST)]Grab the corners and stretch it before you close it, not the maximize button or d-clicking on the blue bar will do it.

Tada

Your absolutly right. That was the fix for my lazy problem.
I have since found out that if you resize a window by dragging the corner, you need to maximize by dragging the corner again before closing or it will always reopen with the last save.
Thanks again for the help.

You didn't need to thank me, I already took a TADA

These computers will humble us all from time to time.

I just went to the UPS package drop off location, you have to enter all the information on a computer, no more forms.

This should be good... I'm not going back for years.
