    kinda urgent...why is my form opening in full screen mode instead of the size i set??

    Hi,

    I just imported all of my objects (tables, forms, etc.) into a brand new database file and all of my forms are now full screen instead of the size I set them to in design. What caused this? I can't get them back to their normal size.

    If it helps, I am using Access 2007 but imported files into 2003 .mdb file.

    ugh, wow, that was beyond simple, yet irritating at the same time

    For anybody who ever encounters this, you have to go to Access Options -> Current Database -> Document Window Options -> then select Overlapping Windows and uncheck Display Document Tabs
