I don't know how it happened, but when I opened a workbook all of the worksheets were about 1/4 the size available for a worksheet. I can't use the cursor to drag from a corner or from an edge to increase the size. Nothing else I can see above the worksheet window seems to help, either. I have other workbooks that I can open and whose worksheet windows fill the available space. How can I fix this?

Hello and welcome to the forum,
There should be a visible maximize button on the top right of your worksheet (in the middle between the close and minimize buttons). You can click on it and it will resize the worksheet the full size.
Hope this helps.

Cleaning up when you're done. Mark your thread [SOLVED] if you received your answer.
abousetta, I might be using the wrong terminology. I have the maximize button on the Excel window, but not on the 1/4 size view of the worksheet. if I maximize the Excel window, there is no effect on the size of my view of the worksheet.

Hi Doug,
Have a look at the attachment.

Good morning, abousetta,
Is there any way to force the small worksheet window to show the three buttons on the upper right (minimize, maximize and close)? I wish I knew how to send you a picture of what I'm seeing. Mine is horizontally oriented (yours vertically), mine occupies the upper left-hand portion of what I'm calling the workspace (yours is centered) and mine has the file name in the upper left-hand corner and nothing in the upper right-hand corner.

Have you tried, via the ribbon, View > Window > Arrange All > Tile.
If the min/max/close buttons are not available then the workbook has the Stucture protected.
Review > Protect Workbook.
Thanks. That did it.
Hi, Andy,Originally Posted by Andy Pope
I have this same problem, but I do not have a protected wookbook, and just cant not figure this out.
Any more suggestions?
