Windows Forms and its control auto resizing

hi all,
i have developed the windows application in 1024*768 resolution.
its working fine it that resolution.
but when i reduce the resolution to the 800*600 , all the controls are not shown properly i.e. they are out of the page .

Can any one help me? how my application will automatically adjust to screen resolution.
also monitor size is not uniform , in samll monitor i cant see all controls.

thanks in advance.

Use the Anchor property (or in some cases the Dock property) to help fascilitate controls staying on the page.

I think an expert here, or someone really familiar here, should definitely write an article basically on anchors and adjusting the resolution because this isn't the first time this question has been... Just a suggestion.
