3/4 window view

M

mommarosa

When I open one specific file in Excel, it only opens to 3/4 of the screen,
leaving gray space between the file and the Excel window. There are no
minimizing/maximizing icons in the upper right header of the file. I can
view and use the worksheet, just not view it in a full window. I've tried
several methods to maximize/restore the window fully, but nothing is working.
A new file will open to full capacity.

There are no minimizing/maximizing icons in the upper right header of the
Typically that occurs when workbook protection to the worksheet window has
been set. If so, Tools, Protection, Unprotect Workbook will fix the
problem.
