Running with a Full-size Window

Q. I like to work in Excel using the full screen size of my monitor. When I open excel, it seems that I always need to “maximize” the window in order to do this. Is there any way I can set it so that it always opens full screen?

A
. This is a trick that you can use with any program to have it open in full screen size, not just Excel.

On your ‘desktop’, right-mouse-click on the Excel icon (for example), and then choose Properties. Change to the “Shortcut’ tab. Near the bottom, you will see “Run:” followed by a selection box. It most likely shows “Normal Window”. Select the drop-down list, and choose “Maximized”, and then OK to finish.

That should do the trick!
