Windows Forms Startup Size

A

Amy L.

I am new to Windows Forms and I was wondering if anyone can point me to any
articles or resources that address programming .Net Windows Applications for
machines that have varying resolutions.

Essentially, I would like my application which I developed under 1024x768 to
look decent on a system when it's resolution is 800x600. Currently, now
when I change resolutions to 800x600 the application protrudes out of the
boundaries of 800x600.

Thanks
Amy.

Design the application for 800 x 600 and dock/anchor the controls
('Dock' and 'Anchor' properties of the controls).
