Hello,

I use custom sort frequently. The first time I use it after starting
Excel 2007, it comes up in the correct size window. The second time
the window is maybe half again larger. The third time, the same. The
fourth time, the window takes up the entire screen. How can I fix
this?

Thank you

I've seen one post saying that using large fonts causes this.
It wasn't clear as to whether that referred to Windows font sizing or to Excel fonts.

My Excel fonts are all standard or smaller. I do have my display DPI
set to 150%. But I'm not going to change my DPI to resolve this
problem {in any case this is more of an annoyance then a problem.}
Still, if this is related to the DPI, it would be nice if MS could fix
it.

Thanks for the reply.
