Q: 

How can I remove the borders/control box from a WPF Form?

In Windows Form, I would modify the FormBorderStyle property in the Properties pane.

Any help?

+2  A: 

Set WindowStyle to None, and ResizeMode to NoResize (either in XAML or through the Properties pane).

That removed the control box, but I can still resize the form and a blue little border is seen. Thanks a bunch for your help! The idea I want is for a Splash screen so only I set an Image to occupy the whole form and I want nothing else displayed. Any help?

Good catch! Sorry about that: edited to add how to get rid of the border (ResizeMode).

+1  A: 

Creating a splash screen is actually supported by the .NET framework, check out this form post on social.msdn.microsoft.com which points you to this walkthrough for the most performant .NET splash screen.

You can designate an image as a splashscreen using the properties window: alt text
