Making form full screen in windows mobile ce 5.0 c# application

I am writing a Windows Mobile CE 5.0 c# application, and I want my form to be completely full screen, and not movable. I have been able to make the form unmovable and maximized. However, want it to cover the task bar as well on the PDA device (it's a symbol one).

I have done some PInvoke calls to hide the task bar. But still, when setting the form WindowState property to Maximized, it does not take up the blank space left by the task bar. Any help please?

Hi,

thanks for your reply. Can you tell me it more clearly? So far, I have been able to put the title bar, prvent the screen from moving, hide the task bar. However when maximizing the screen it takes the whole screen space, except the space which was being previously used by the task bar. So, since the task bar is now hidden, there is a rectangular bar below which is not being used by the form, and my aim is to make the form occupy the whole screen, including that empty space. Any suggestion?

Thanks
