form appearance problem

I've an windows application developed using vb.net( vs2003) and i'm testing
this application on windows xp professional.

my application is having only one form the size of the form is

height : 1030
width : 753

and this form is having lot of controls on it (panel, textbox, lables,
dropdownlist controls etc).

when i run the application (in xp system) then it is not displaying the full
form on the screen, i mean the bottom part of the form is beyond the taskbar
so i'm unable to see some of the controls which are positioned at the bottom
side.

i also set autoscroll property to True, but is is not displaying any scroll
bars.

and one more problem is when i uncheck the lock the taskbar (right cliccking
the taskbar and uncheck) option and expanded the taskbar then some part of
the my form is invisible since it was covered by task bar.

please can anyone help me how to solve this problem how i can see my form
with all of its controls.

i hope you got what i said.
Its very urgent for me

Thanx in advance

Basically you need to make the form smaller, or tell the users that they
must run in 1024x768 minimum. Also, you could try reducing the number of "in
view" controls - are they in groups that you could put in a tab control for
instance?
