do you have admin rights on the machine??? I'm thinking that if not, then maybe you only have read rights to part of the form/outlook...

After I submitted question I slapped my head and went &quot;ah duh&quot; - of course that's the answer. &nbsp;Sometimes you know you just forget the obvious stuff. &nbsp;Thanks.

This is an annoying problem that has just started. &nbsp;Using Windows 2000, Office 2000 - SP2<br />
<br />
When you click New Message - the dialog box for New Message appears smaller than the screen (not full screen but not minimized on toolbar). &nbsp;You click the maximize button on dialog and it maximizes. &nbsp; Then when you go to type your next message - it again is not maximized. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I went through options etc and can't find where Outlook can reset the New Message box to open maximized each time.<br />
<br />
Any ideas?
