Is it set to maximize on Open? Or possibly you have another form opened
maximized? Windows will then maximize everything unless you tell it not to.

Hello
The min and max buttons are enabled in properties but they don't show on the
form.
Maximize on open I don't see anything for that property, blank. No other
forms are open. I notice there isn't a ruler on the right edge of the form
just a big blank to the right edge from the form to the frame of Access. That
doesn't look right.
thanks for the replies.

There has never been a ruler on the right side of a form or report, or for
that matter in Word or Excel. Try disabling the Min and Max buttons.

BTW, does this happen in the Northwind sample database?
