iam developing my windows form application(ide:visual studio.net 2003, visual c#) on windows 2000 professional operating system , but when i run the exe on Xp operating system, the screen (windows form) of my application gets truncated at the end of the screen
i have to make changes to the forms height and width to make it fully visible on the screen

iam using infragistics library for some controls on the form, is it the culprit

i want to identify the current operating system so that i can give different views of the screen when it is run on the
different operating systems
how to get the OS Name of the current operating system?
I know that this is not a good approach in solving the problem, do u have any alternate ideas in solving screen truncation

Is there any third party tools available which will do the job

lot in trouble ...need help.

Hi Seash,

I haven't use infragistics myself, but I have run into the same thing
before, and it was due that the client was running at 640x400 and I had
designed the form for 800x600 so it got truncate.

I would check both screen resolutions and see if the client has a lower
one.

Cheers,
