Try the Auto Resize property of the report. If set to Yes it will size
itself to show the entire page in the window (i.e. Fit), if set to No, it
will size itself to 100%.

To resize the report window within the Access window, check this link:
http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0042.htm

>From the help file to set the default size:
1) Open a form in Form view or a report in Print Preview.
2) Size the form or report by dragging the borders of the window.
3) Click Save on the toolbar.
