I am having trouble sizing the windows in IE 7. Does anyone know where I can
get specific instructions for sizing the windows? Thanks in advance for any
help!

Specific instructions for sizing windows (applies to IE 7):

To minimize the window, click on the '-' symbol in the upper right of
the browser frame.

To maximize the window, click on the square symbol in the upper right of
the browser frame.

To return a maximized window to its previous size, click on the
cascading boxes symbol in the upper right of the browser frame.

To select a custom size for the window, rest your cursor at the edge of
a window or at any corner; when the cursor turns to a double-headed
arrow, click your mouse and drag the window to any size or dimension you
wish.

There are two other commonly employed ways to accomplish the above:
Either click on the symbol in the top left corner of the browser frame,
or right-click on the window's toolbar button and select from the
context menu.

Thanks so much for your help, but the problem I am trying to solve is getting
the window larger when it first opens. I know how to adjust it once it is
open. When they open now they are about 4" by 6". I want them to open larger
so that I do not have to manually adjust them. Thanks for your help

Expand it manually to the size you want -- then close with "X" and open
again.

That MAY do the trick.

1.Do NOT maximize the window. "Grab" its corners with your cursor and drag
it to the desired larger size (e.g., fullscreen).

2. Close all other IE windows then close the one you just resized.

The resized window /must/ be the last window closed for its size to be
remembered.

All you asked for was "specific instructions for sizing the windows".

After you resize a window, exit by using the "File" "close" command, and
make sure that this is the last window you exit from.
