Yeah, put a Maximize button in the modal dialog box.  That's the only way
you're going to be able to handle this.  However, I really wouldn't suggest
going about the path you're going.  Minimize and maximize should be handled
via the caption bar buttons like normal windows apps do.  Either that or
through a menu choice (I believe Excel uses the menu bar for maximizing).
