Window Sizing

[Curt Emich]

How do I make my window appear maximized when it first opens? This is a C#
program and it's the main window. I want to use the full screen, if
possible.

Also, in the development environment itself, I can't seem to get the form to
be as big as I want it to be. In other words, it won't stretch to full size
so that I can add controls that would take up the whole screen. It only
takes up about half the screen size, and it won't scroll any further.

look at WindowState property of the form - the last one in Properties window

Check out Size property - or via code:
Form1.Size.Height = ... ;
Form1.Size.Width = ... ;

or shorter:
Form1.Width = ...;
Form1.Height = ...;

where you must replace "Form1" with the name of your form!

Actually, it's not a windows form. It's an .aspx page. I'm still
having a hard time finding a property that takes care of this.
