This question might have a really simple answer but i just can't seem to find the answer by myself.

I have a database called phone file which has a bunch of phone numbers we use at the office.

Every time someone opens the phone file the window in which it comes up in is really really small.

Everyone always has to re size the window so that all the phones are viewable.

Is there a way to change the default size in which the database pops up in?

Determine the size of window you want in a startup script to run when the file is opened

As an alternative to a fixed size, you could use the "Adjust Window [Resize to Fit]" script step in the startup script. If your layout is "View as List" (rather than View as Form), this will cause the window to stretch to fill the entire vertical screen real estate, and will handle users with different size monitors.

OK,

Moving from one layout to another, resizing in a form view is a snap, as you said. But then in the list views, I need the resize to fit function to resize the width, but then as you also said, it fills the screen top to bottom. I add the resize current window to X-height. The problem is there is a "flash" created by the full length version before the resize is a specific height takes effect. Is there any way to limit the rezize to width or length only? Or another way to do this?

thanks
