Excel Find and Replace Box
When I hit CTRL+F in Excel now, the search box is popping up as a full sized window, that covers the whole screen, so I have to minimize or close it to see the whole sheet again. It used to just open up in the small window that you could move around.
To make it more fun, it doesn't happen every time. Just most times.
There has to be a simple setting for this somewhere.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
John

This was reported over a year and a half ago. How is it still not fixed? Is there nobody working on fixing these programs as they break them? There would never be an instance where I'd want the find window to block literally everything I'm trying to find. A little bit of common sense goes a long way.
What happens if you double-click the title bar of the Find and Replace dialog?

HansVogelaar of course, now that I have posted the question, it hasn't happened again since then! I'll reply what happens if the big box pops up again.
