A form displayed in form view will show the header and footer section at the
size set in design mode; the detail section will be re-sized to fit in the
available space for the size of the form window (and may disappear entriely
if the form is too small). There's a couple of ways of setting things to
prevent scroll bars appearing (except for continuous forms). The easiest,
if the form is not a continuous form, is to open the form in form view and
select "Size to fit form" on the Window menu; the form will then resize
(both vertically and horizontally) to the size that it has in design mode;
click "Save" on the file menu, and the form will then always open to this
size. Alternatively, if the form has its border style set to sizeable, when
it's open in form view, you can resize it on-screen to the size you want,
and again click Save when it's what you want.

HTH,

Rob
