Maximized MDI forms

If you show a form in an MDI container
(form.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;)
a ControlBox appears under the main title.

Is there any way to get rid of this (I have set the properties of the children
to not show a ControlBox, Min/Max boxes etc)

You appear to have to make the child form DockStyle = Fill
