Never seen this one before!  When I put the cursor over the QSO entry window
all I get is the cross hair with little box symbol which can be used to
reposition the window.  I never get the double ended arrow cursor on the QSO
entry window which indicates you can resize the window.

Can you drag the small box you have out of the main WL window to another
area of the desk top?  If so, does it stay the same size or does it go back
to normal size?  If that doesn't do it check the writelog.ini file.  I see
several of the windows in there have X=, Y=, W=, H= parameters which I take
to mean the screen coordinates where the window will be located.  I think
these are updated when you do a Save Configuration.  In the section called
[ENTRY], which I think is the QSO entry window I do not see any X, Y,W, H
position coordinates so I'm not sure how WL keeps track of where this window
opens or to what size.  I can't help but think that somewhere there are W=,
H= coordinates, that determine the small box size that you are seeing.  The
trick is to find them and change them.  I'm not sure if there is anything in
the WL Help file relating to window size and position, but it might not hurt
to take a look.
