our contacts database always opens up full screen (which on a 20" imac is a lot of white space) whereas our invoicing databases open up to approximately a4 size. can i restrict the contacts file to open much smaller?

the empty file is here if somebody wants to have a look at it:

many thanks

You have an open script specified in File Options, appropriately named "Open Script". If you enter ScriptMaker and change the Adjust Window step to "Resize to Fit" instead of "Maximize".

You can also use the script step "Move/Resize Window" then you can specify as part of a script exatly where and how big you want a particular window to be.

This takes some fiddling sometimes, but the results are worth the effort.
