Hi,

I have a program that has a SIZE of 800x600.

I want to make this program expand if it is maximized, so that all the elements(buttons, picturebox's) change size to fit the new ratio depending on the users windows screen resolution.

The way I am thinking to approach this is to take the users screen resolution and manual change the size of everything, and do this for all common resolutions, if a user has some rare resolution, ill just make it so the maximize/minimize buttons are disabled.

But this will be very very time consuming as there are lots of elements in the forms, and their are multiple forms.....

Basically, is there a shortcut? Perhaps a built in feature or some kind of add in for VS2008.

What are some methods to tackle this issue?

Thanks , Jack
