Hi, I hope it will works. And to make sure it works 100% you must auto hide your task bar... This is how it works. 1. If you are res 800 x 600, the app will auto resize to 800 x 600. 2. If you are res 1024 x 768, the app will auto resize to 1024 x 768 3. How to achieve this? 2 things to consider a) a paint event handler b) System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width and System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height Form1.cs ------------ using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Collections; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Data; namespace TestingScreenRes { /// /// Summary description for Form1. /// public class Form1 : System.Windows.Forms.Form { /// /// Required designer variable. /// private System.ComponentModel.Container components = null; public Form1() { // // Required for Windows Form Designer support // InitializeComponent(); // // TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call // } /// /// Clean up any resources being used. /// protected override void Dispose( bool disposing ) { if( disposing ) { if (components != null) { components.Dispose(); } } base.Dispose( disposing ); } #region Windows Form Designer generated code /// /// Required method for Designer support - do not modify /// the contents of this method with the code editor. /// private void InitializeComponent() { // // Form1 // this.AutoScaleBaseSize = new System.Drawing.Size(5, 13); this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(292, 266); this.Name = "Form1"; this.Text = "Form1"; this.Paint += new System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventHandler(this.Form1_Paint); } #endregion /// /// The main entry point for the application. /// [STAThread] static void Main() { Application.Run(new Form1()); } private void Form1_Paint(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs e) { this.Size = new Size(System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width, System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height); } } } Hope it helps. Cheers.
