Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
This ussually happens when you open another form or report and Maximize it. Then when you close the form/report the previous screen is also maximized.

I usually use Macros to open my form/reports and in doing so I use the "Restore" action on the tied to the object I am closing.

So the actions might be like this for a "Back" option for a button or in the "Onclose" event for a form/Report.

Simply select the "restore" action and the underlying form will restre to it's set size.

you have to play around with it to get it to work to your needs.
