I did a lot of work in a 256x256 map in the form of triggers and data. I now realize I need a smaller map for what I'm planning. Is there a way to change the map size after it's been created? If not, is there a way to move over my current trigger and data stuff to a new map?
You can find "Map Bounds" under the Map menu. In this window you will see a picture of your map, and 2 check boxes under it. One which allows to modify camera limits, and one which allows to modify the map size. Check the box for the map size, and use the small arrows on the side of your map picture to cut the parts you don't need anymore.
By the way, you would have done better searching in the forums before creating a thread, I'm pretty sure there are already 3 or 4 complete tutorials about this (with lots of other beginner tips).
Check the "Modify Map Bounds" option, and use the arrows on the side of your map preview image. You can then move the limits of your map, and when you click OK it will tell you it can't be undone (so be sure to crop your map properly before applying).
It's so easy I shouldn't even have to tell you this, there are video tutorials on SC2Mapster already covering such basics... I wonder how you could have done "a lot of work in triggers and data" without even checking options in the standard menus first... *sigh*

@ZealNaga: Go
did search, found nothing. If you know of any I would appreciate a link.
Go in Map > Map Bounds
This window will show:
