Making windows open to a smaller size to fit the screen

I just switched from a 17" MBP to a 13" MBA. The smaller screen is fine, but all my apps open in windows that are too wide for the screen and I end up having to scroll and/or resize. I'm wondering if there's a setting I can change to get all my apps to open to fit the existing screen size? I haven't had much luck with Google. I thought it might be a resolution issue, but that's not it (I'm at 1440x900 and if I choose any other setting, my problem gets worse).



Thanks,



Rae
